A 1967 Jaguar E-Type convertible that appeared in all three Austin Powers movies is being sold at Mecum. The car has a 4.2-liter engine, 103,000 kilometers and has recently undergone a restoration.

The legendary Jaguar E-Type, which became the star of all three Austin Powers movies, has been put up for auction in the United States, UNN reports with reference to the Mecum auction site.

A 1967 Jaguar E-Type convertible was put up for sale at Mecum in the United States. The car, which became a movie hero, is planned to be sold for a significant sum.

This particular Jaguar E-Type Series 1 in the colors of the British flag was used in the comedy trilogy about the spy Austin Powers. It is noteworthy that only one car was used for filming in all three parts – there were no understudies.

In addition, this Jaguar E-Type (or Shaguar, as Austin Powers called it) appeared in Madonna's video for the song Beautiful Stranger, which became the soundtrack to the second part of the trilogy.

After filming, the Jaguar E-Type sports car was purchased by a private collector. From time to time, the car was used in Jaguar promotions. It has recently been restored, and its mileage is 103,000 km.

The 1967 Jaguar E-Type Convertible is powered by a 4.2-liter six-cylinder engine with 265 hp paired to a 4-speed manual transmission. It accelerates to 100 km/h in 7 seconds and can reach a top speed of 240 km/h.
