Hey Lardbutt,

Sir Wheels is not confused, but YOU ARE (so what else is new, eh?)

The V12 was not an option in the series 3, it was STOCK, idiot.

Read the second paragraph, or have someone read it to you and then explain
it in simple words you can understand. So much from your brochure.
(However, I've heard that your new lavendar décolletée brassière is
quite a sight.)


Series 3 (1971-1975)
Series III
1972 Jaguar E-Type Series III 2+2
Production 	1971-1975
Body style(s) 	2-door 2+2 coupe
2-door convertible
Engine(s) 	5.3 L Jaguar V12

A new 5.3 L 12-cylinder Jaguar V12 engine was introduced, with uprated
brakes and standard power steering. The short wheelbase FHC body style was
discontinued and the V-12 was available only as a convertible and 2+2
coupe. The convertible used the longer-wheelbase 2+2 floorpan. It is
easily identifiable by the aggressive, slatted front grill in place of the
mouth of earlier cars, flared wheel arches and a badge on the rear that
proclaims it to be a V12.

There were also a very limited number of 4.2 litre six cylinder Series 3
E-Types built. These were featured in the initial sales literature. It is
believed these are the rarest of all E-types of any remaining.
