Seems strange this e type has been left with the window open all morning in the Kent area! Would you leave a 100k+ car sitting like that?? Could be all legit of course

It's a hot day and it's a dark colour. Would you be asking the same question if it was a roadster with the roof down?

Reg check for 634 AWD on the MOT checker comes up with a hit on a grey Jag E-Type...
Expired 20 April this year??
Could've just been MOT'd in the last couple of days, and back on the road and the database hasn't caught up. Or could be something a bit more suspect.
EDIT:
Forgot it's now MOT exempt!

Ok just got home and done some limited checking up All to no avail so I’m hoping it’s not stolen or anything else untoward hope if anyone is on any jaguar forums they can ask? Still seems odd someone would leave an E type open And unattended from the early hours of the morning I passed by some six hours later it was still there

Call the cops. Say you believe it’s been stolen. They’ll ring the owner to check.

101, it's suspicious enough that if someone's available, they'll check it out.
It won't be a full on, lights and sirens, bonnet-rolling Sweeney response, so don't worry.

Seems to missing the chrome trim around the windscreen.
To be fair if somebody wants to steal it, they would do regardless whether the windows are down or up.

There are a couple of people in the porch of the house in the background looking towards it. I've stopped for a chat at a friends house but 4 hours is a bit of a long time.

Seems a bit of a storm in a tea cup to me. I mean a thread on what is effectively ‘a car parked on a street. It’s a wonder the mods haven’t moved it to the ‘spotted’ section

It does seem odd but some people are odd. That said, I've called 101 about cars that seemed out of place a couple of times in the past. It doesn't do any harm.

It's a gorgeous series 1 as well 😍 Does seem odd to be unattended and insecure for so long...... certainly wouldn't do that if it were mine.....
