I'd have to do digging, but I get the feeling it might be a bit on the high side.
From personal experience, nice shiny looking British cars from the 60's can be damn expensive sink holes.
I'd have to look at it but from the pictures although it looks "original" much trouble could easily be lurking underneath. I dunno if it's over priced or not but I sure as heck would have an E-type dude look it over.
Obligatory meme:
You'll look snappy in your tweed sport coat with the elbow patch's driving that, Professor.
My boots are holding better value than that car.

I once heard a very tall, very slim and very pretty brunette say of an E Type coupe, "I don't know what kind of car that is, but I just want to lick it."

Not another dime.
30 years ago my wife wanted a Jag. I told her OK, but, with it you get a cell phone, CB and AAA membership AND do not call me when it breaks in the road. She declined.
E type Jags and Ferrari GTOs are some of the most beautiful cars. I liked the looka of E type coupes a lot.

There’s an old Side Glances column on “Buying an old Jaguar” that includes:
“...If you’ve never seen an exploded drawing of a Jaguar rear end, try to imagine an aerial depiction of China in which each person represents a shim, gasket, stud, locknut, spacer, spider gear, or bearing. Then imagine yourself, director’s megaphone in hand, trying to organize them all into some sort of differential folk dance. The shims alone defy census.”
How I felt at Publix last week.
