A wild E Type. This belongs to a Scottish guy who runs a sewing shop inside the store. I've had some good chats with him (he hemmed some curtains for me). He said he owns two E Types, and a couple of other cars I can't remember. I guess the sewing business is good.

2+2?

Yup. The series 1 and 2 cars had the OTS (roadster), the FHC (coupe) and the 2+2.

All the series 3 cars were the LWB, so all the coupes were 2+2.

I was just watching a show last night where they restored an E Type. Even painted it red. It ended up being worth over $30k. I didn't spend much time looking at this car, but it looked very, very clean. I think I'm going to ask him if I can photograph it sometime.

You probably don't need to remember, all you need to know is 2 E Types !

Someone! Please! Teach this man how to park!

Right next to the carriage return. Are you serious. Do you like carriage dings all over your classic Jaguar?

Yes you need 2 E-types for when one breaks down.

Oh, for some reason I thought in the #Loveyourjaguar day photo it was BRG.

I'm guessing that he parked there to keep door dings from at least one side. He can't park far away because he lost a leg in a motorcycle accident. So, two E Types and a serious motorcycle injury. I need to have a beer with this guy.
