Other hallmarks of Series II cars are a wrap-around rear bumper, e-positioned and larger front indicators and tail lights below the bumpers, etter cooling aided by an enlarged "mouth" and twin electric fans, nd uprated brakes. Series 2 cars have been known to be the best drivers and most reliable of the E-Type lines.


A combination steering lock and ignition key was fitted to the steering column, hich replaced the dash board mounted ignition switch and charismatic push button starter. A new steering column was fitted with a collapsible section in the event of an accident.


New seats were fitted which allowed the fitment of head restraints, s required by U.S. law beginning in 1969. The interior and dashboard were also redesigned; rocker switches that met US health and safety regulations were substituted for toggle switches. The dashboard switches also lost their symmetrical layout.

The engine is easily identified visually by the change from smooth polished cam covers to a more industrial "ribbed" appearance. It was de-tuned in the US with twin Strombergs and larger valve clearances, ut in the UK retained triple SUs and the much tighter valve clearances.


This beautiful Pale Primrose yellow XKE OTS is an outstanding original example in excellent condition.
