Here is a brief excerpt taken from the auction description:

The Jaguar E Type must be a contender for the title of the world’s most beautiful car, surely? Enzo Ferrari certainly thought so and he wasn’t one to praise other people’s cars with any regularity. Decidedly phallic in profile, it features inch-perfect lines, some of the best engines in the business, and a cockpit straight out of every schoolboy’s dreams.

First launched in 1961 and still around in 1975, the E Type was designed to be aerodynamic rather than beautiful, which goes to prove the engineering adage that if it looks right then it probably is.

Still finished in the same shade it left the factory with in December 1971, this Pale Primrose Yellow Series 3 E Type fixed-head coupé is fitted with the V12 engine and automatic gearbox and, to complete the Grand Touring trilogy, power-steering.
