Premiums compare the median price of sales with each option against comparable sales without it, mined from verified auction listings. Sales are pooled across markets on a relative-price basis, so exchange rates and market levels can't skew the split. Options interact in ways a one-at-a-time split can’t capture — treat each premium as directional rather than gospel.

Marque analyst note

The Jaguar E-Type Series 3 market in Australia is signaling weakness, with the median price now sitting at $175,000 AUD—down 20.9% over the past twelve months. This sharp decline and the high-confidence sell signal suggest a sustained pressure on valuations rather than a temporary correction.

Liquidity remains thin in the Australian market, with only three recorded sales over the past year and a single active listing currently. This scarcity of transactions means buyers and sellers face material friction in pricing negotiations, and any individual sale can swing sentiment significantly.

The Series 3 holds moderate desirability within the E-Type family, ranking as a collectible rather than a headline blue-chip classic. Later-series E-Types typically command less attention than earlier models among purists, which may partly explain the downward momentum seen across the sample.

The three-year base projection falls to approximately $103,000 AUD, implying a further 41% decline from the current median. Over five years, values are forecast to drift toward $87,700 AUD, representing a cumulative loss of nearly 50% from today's levels.

This outlook reflects broader softening in the mid-range classic market and the specific positioning of the Series 3 as a secondary-tier variant within an already specialized segment. Prospective buyers entering now should be prepared for extended holding periods and limited exit opportunities in the near term.
