Are you looking for a 1:8th scale model or a 1:18th scale
model? The former is really huge but I know that Autoart
make a nice 1:18 scale E Series 3 E Type V-12 roadster as I
reviewed one for the USA club magazine Jaguar Journal a
numbe of issues ago.–

You are looking for the Monogram 1:8 scale plastic E-Type
kit. I am not sure what you mean by ‘‘reasonable priced’’, or
what your price range is. I seem to recall that Monogram
reissued this kit some years back. Chances are the older
kits command a much higher price.
I see there is one on eBay now with a bid of $20 something
and a couple days left to run. May be a chance to buy one
closer to what you are willing to pay. eBay doesn’t set
prices, sellers and the market do. There have been some
great bargains of late for me in what I collect, mostly 1:43.
Good luck!

Looking at recently completed eBay listings, there was one
that had no bids at a $9.99 minimum (that would have been a
good buy), another that was thought to be complete sold for
$30 something and a sealed kit for $189 by another seller.
I think you just need to keep watching the listings.–
