Jaguar E Type 60th Anniversary. Good or bad?
Jaguar made 6 pairs of E Type Convertible and Coupé which cannot be sold separately, for more than half a million Euros. The body is of course all new, the engine has been revisited ( 6 Cylinders 265 HP ) and a new 5 speeds manual gearbox. And what an int...
The convertible.
Usually I'm not a fan of convertibles, but with this Jaguar hit a homerun back in the days! The coupe is beautiful, but the convertible sensually beautiful!
Convertible but ....
With hard top!... best of both no? Anyway, I like the pairs, but as a purist, I like my classics as close to the original as possible, not a fan of new configurations. Restorations are already a departure as long as they stay faithful to original specs. M...

you just can't improve on the looks of the E-type , don't mind the six as long as it does not leak like my 1966 did . My buddy had the 2 coupe quite the car would top out at about 140mph which was good back in the early 70's that 12 cyl was silky smooth
