Jaguar Classic Cars
Specs, history, and buyer's guides for every collectible Jaguar.
Jaguar E-Type
1961β1974The sports car Enzo Ferrari reportedly called the most beautiful car ever made.
Launched at the 1961 Geneva Motor Show, the E-Type combined a long, sculpted bonnet with genuine 150 mph performance at a fraction of Ferrari or Aston Martin pricing. Its shape remains one of the most celebrated in automotive design history.
Jaguar Mark 2
1959β1967The elegant sports sedan that became the definitive British getaway car β for gentlemen and bank robbers alike.
The Mark 2 combined saloon-car comfort with genuine sports car performance, becoming hugely popular in period with both police forces and, famously, criminals who valued its speed. Its cultural legacy was cemented decades later by the Inspector Morse television series.
Jaguar XK120/140/150
1948β1961The car that put postwar Jaguar on the map as a genuine sports car maker.
Unveiled as a show car in 1948, the XK120's beauty and genuine 120 mph top speed (hence the name) generated such demand that Jaguar rushed it into production. It established the twin-cam XK engine that would power Jaguars for the next three decades.
