The long, elegant and graceful lines of an E Type bonnet are best highlighted in a flattering colour.

This is very true for our incredible 1973 Jaguar E Type Series 3 Roadster that has been finished in a very rare Fern Grey. Our in-house paint team worked hard to make sure every surface on this vast and prominent part were perfect before even the first coat of primer was laid down.

The bonnet of an E type is such an important and recognisable part of the cars overall character. It couldn’t be anything less than perfect for this particular build.

Matt and Chris worked their magic in our paint booth, getting the right shade to match this very special car.

Next up for Fern Grey, getting it fitted to the rest of the car that Scott, our technician, has worked so hard on.
