beautiful car ever made?" into Google and the Jaguar XKE pops up.

Motor show it attracted the attention of the whole world like no
other car ever had ever done before. With its stunning sleek
bodywork, ground breaking performance & impressive handling it

legend of all time. And here is your opportunity to enjoy an
outstanding rendering of that legend today. This fine example has
been owned and loved by a very fussy gentleman for close to 40
years and is is fitted with the 4.2 liter version of the well
proven 6 cylinder double overhead camshaft XK engine, and is driven
through an automatic transmission. Suspension is independent all
round. The rear suspension features twin coil spring and damper
units either side was, along with the differential and inboard rear
brake assemblies, mounted in a cradle that was attached to the cars
shell via insulated rubber bushes and stabilized by sturdy radius
arms. Inside this fine car you will find leather seats and fully
comprehensive instrumentation that is beautifully laid out on the
sports black and aluminum dashboard. This is all complimented by a
wood rim sports steering wheel to guide Jaguars responsive rack &
pinion steering. The first road tests further helped to promote the
E Type virtues, with a top speed of 153 mph being attained along
with standing quarter mile and 0 - 60mph times of 15 seconds & 6.7
seconds respectively. The E type maintained Jaguars very
respectable reputation in motor sport and as manufacturer of
