Considered by many to be the quintessential British Sports Car,
the Jaguar E-Type’s unveiling in 1961 caused a sensation both with
the press and in the public eye. Admirers came from all walks of
life; even Enzo Ferrari referred to it as “the most beautiful car
ever made”. Beneath its gorgeous looks was a revolutionary sports
car with rack and pinion steering, fully independent suspension,
and four wheel disc brakes with inward rear rotors that matched the
already proven performance of the 3.8 litre XK engine. The Series
II E-Type was released in 1968 and continued the trend of strong
performance mated with an iconic shape. Improvements were plentiful
and included an increased grill opening to aid in cooling as well
as a more refined interior that still satisfied the sportiest of
drivers. All Series II E-types featured the larger 4.2 litre
engine; the most discerning owners ordered their cars with the
factory options of power steering and air conditioning. An even
smaller percentage would go on to order a Series II with the
optional 3-speed Borg-Warner fully automatic gearbox that allowed
the E-type to glide effortlessly through traffic. The incredibly
good looks with proven performance and racing heritage make the
E-type one of the most coveted and sought-after British classics
today.
