Heroic Jaguars

20250416_180206.jpg

These gorgeous designs were born in a time before aerodynamics became ugly. They are pure grace and melodic mechanical fury. They are a zealous homage to an era of heroic motoring.​​

The bodies are English wheel rolled aluminum which is far superior in fitment and finish to the hammered panels offered by some other companies. The metal shaping craftsmanship is so good that even in bare metal there is a near mirror finish on the panels. Every panel, every bracket, every louver and every fitting is bespoke and hand fitted to ensure a superior fit and finish. The cars are dimensionally faithful to the originals and the tubular frames capture the appearance of the originals while using later model Jaguar suspension components including the famous independent rear suspension. Adjustable dampers at all 4 corners is standard. This combines to provide exceptional road holding, superior traction and a beautiful balance of performance and ride quality.


The famous twin cam Jaguar inline 6 is lusty, velvety smooth and delivers the seamless ribbon of raw power which always leaves a smile on your face. Their light weight alloy bodies allow the large disk brakes to perform feats of deceleration which would have seemed miraculous to other vehicles of their era.


The interiors are configured as original and with new instruments matching the appearance of the originals. The seats are trimmed in your choice of leather and each car comes equipped with Willians four point racing harnesses.

Jaguar C-Type

Jaguar C-Type

Choose from either the 1951 or 1953 LeMans winning body styles. The 1951 has a smooth bonnet and rear section whereas the 1953 has a small scoop on the bonnet to feed air to the triple Weber carburetors and a rib running down the rear section which was the support for the larger fuel tank as well as a lamp to illuminate the roundel during night racing.

Jaguar D-Type

Jaguar D-Type

The D-type was the successor to the incredibly successful C-Type, but it was not an evolution; it was a revolution! It masterfully blended aviation and racing technology. The end result was a technological tour de force that could not be matched by Mercedes or Ferrari. She was as beautiful as she was fast. Her aerodynamic aluminum body slipped through the air at 180 mph. Her aircraft derived disc brakes were the best in the world and allowed her drivers to keep their foot in the throttle further down the Mulsanne straight.

Jaguar XKSS

Jaguar XKSS

The XKSS has rightfully been called the world's first supercar. In 1957 Jaguar took their 172 MPH Le Mans winning D-type racer added a full windscreen with wipers, a folding convertible top, light alloy bumpers, a passenger seat and little else before declaring it a street car. In addition to power it had huge disc brakes designed to slow the car from 170 mph lap after lap. Nothing on the street could come close to it. Shortly after its introduction the factory was destroyed by fire. Only 16 cars were built.
