This book illustrates how the beautifully designed E-type was actually developed from the line of Jaguar racing cars, rather than following an evolutionary path from the XK150 line. It certainly had a hard act to follow when considering the gorgeous and voluptuous XKs that appeared just after the War.

About this product

Product Information

This superbly produced book is a detailed study of the design of the immortal Jaguar E-type, which consistently tops the ranks of the most beautiful cars ever produced. Following an introduction to Jaguar's heritage, the book reveals how design inspiration and technical advances combined in the development of this remarkable sports car. The analysis continues with the launch of the E-type in 1961, through its model history and motor sport achievements until production ceased in 1975, and the legacy that has influenced various Jaguar designs ever since.
