The big Jaguar first appeared in 1962 and you only could choose between pastel pale blue or pale green, each with a red interior. Next came a metallic cerise colour which you can find in many shades and then a whole host of colours appear for reasons I have no idea about!
There is silver, metallic silver-blue, metallic deep blue, metallic emerald and shades thereof as well as a scarce metallic turquoise.
Very hard to find, these blues and greens also may have red or yellow interiors.
This is a lovely rich metallic silver-blue edition and has the red interior and is in really excellent condition. It has good strong suspension, original tyres, nice windows, and all its jewels in place along the front.
The bonnet opens and also the boot, in which there should be an original opening case plus a second closed case. These I don't have at present, although I might be able to swap them from another model for a small additional price.
This clearly has not been played with very much and is lovely, original and this is quite a scarce colour, being somewhat darker than the usual silver-blue shade that I have had before.
