164 Jaguar E type (Series 2) 2+2 Coupe (1970) SUX 899 H by Robert Knight Via Flickr: Jaguar E Type (Ser.II) 2+2 Coupe (1969-70) Engine 4235cc S6 DOC Production 4860 (plus 5330 2+2 Coupes and 8630 Roadsters) Registration Number SUX 899 H (Shropshire) JAGUAR SET www.flickr.com/photos/45676495@N05/albums/72157623671588245/ Designed by Malcolm Sawyer, the Jaguar E-Type, or the Jaguar XK-E for the North American market, was manufactured by Jaguar rom 1961 to 1974, over three generations. Its sleek appearance, advanced technologies, high performance, and competitive pricing established it as an icon. The E-Type was based on Jaguar's D-Type racing car, which had won the 24 Hours of Le Mans for three consecutive years beginning in 1955 The Series 2 was introduced in 1968, with a number of design changes The most distinctive exterior feature is the absence of the glass headlight covers, a change made to comply with new regulations in the vital US export market. Unlike some other cars, this step was applied worldwide for the E-Type. Other hallmarks of Series 2 cars are a wrap-around rear bumper, larger front indicators and tail lights re-positioned below the bumpers, and an enlarged grille and twin electric fans to aid cooling. Additional US-inspired changes included a steering lock which moved the ignition switch to the steering column, replacing the dashboard mounted ignition and push button starter, the symmetrical array of metal toggle switches replaced with plastic rockers, and a collapsible steering column to absorb impact in the event of an accident. New seats allowed the fitment of head restraints, as required by US law beginning in 1969. The engine is easily identified visually by the change from smooth polished cam covers to a more industrial ribbed appearance Diolch am 97,358,239 o olygfeydd anhygoel, mae pob un yn cael ei werthfawr706'n fawr.

208 Jaguar E-Type Semi-Lightweight Competition Roadster with Hardtop Replica (1968) WPN 537 by Robert Knight Via Flickr: Jaguar E-Type Semi-Lightweight Competition Roadster with Hardtop Replica (1968) Engine 4235cc S6 Registration Number WPN 537 JAGUAR ALBUM www.flickr.com/photos/45676495@N05/sets/72157623671588245... Based on a Jaguar E type (Series 2) Roadster, this appears to be an accurate replica of one of the 7 1961 Jaguar E-Type Semi-Lightweight Competition Roadster with Hardtop that were raced in the early 1960s to promote the new E type. Though highly successful on the track and stunning to look at the modifications on these cars from the standard Series 1 E type was relatively mild and included: an increased compression ratio; polished con rods; gas flowed cylinder head and inlet manifold; lightened flywheel; and the provision of a close ratio gearbox. The fortunate few earmarked for the inaugural septet of racing E-Types were those who'd already successfully waved the Jaguar flag on track - ie John Coombs, Tommy Sopwith, Ecurie Ecosse, Peter Berry, and Sir Gawaine Baillie. Ultimately, Coombs, Sopwith and Berry were granted two each and Baillie one. They were later sold of into private hands and today the surviving originals cost a fortune when they rarely come up for sale. In 2016 Chassis No: 850007 one of the John Coombes cars, came up for auction at Bonhams Duxford sale selling at £843,750 Diolch am 98,769,248 o olygiadau gwych, mae pob un ohonynt yn cael eu gwerthfawrogi'n fawr.
