GR Auto Gallery is delighted to present this striking 1964 Jaguar XKE Series I 3.8 Roadster, a timeless icon of British motoring. Under the bonnet lies its legendary 3.8L inline-six engine, now breathing through triple Weber carburetors. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a Tremec five-speed manual transmission, striking the perfect balance between spirited performance and relaxed highway cruising. According to the selling owner, the motor runs below 3k-rpm while cruising at a brisk 75-mph.

Draped in classic British Racing Green, this XKE showcases coveted Series I features, including the sleek, enclosed headlight design and gleaming chrome accents throughout. Minilite Jaguar race wheels with two-ear knock-offs make for a sport-styled appearance, while Wilwood disc brakes provide excellent stopping power. Adding further versatility, the original removable hardtop means you can enjoy it as either an open roadster or a closed coupe, perfect for any weekend adventure.

Inside, a tan leather interior with matching carpets offers a luxurious environment for piloting this quintessential British sports car. The three-spoke wood-rim steering wheel fronts a 160 mph speedometer, and auxiliary gauges for water temperature, fuel level, amperage, and oil pressure sit neatly in the center dash cluster. The six-digit odometer displays 3,189 miles, believed to be the mileage accrued since the engine was rebuilt. Meanwhile, the selling owner estimates the chassis at around 34,000 miles, though exact mileage remains unknown. With its blend of heritage, mechanical upgrades, and enduring style, this 1964 Jaguar XKE Series I 3.8 Roadster is a truly exceptional enthusiast's car.
