After a magnificent fifty years, Jaguar Classic has unveiled two brand new E-Type models, sparkling like exquisite jewelry, radiating retro charm. These cars are not only a tribute to the cessation of E-Type production in 1974 but also a perfect blend of art and technology. These unique models were custom-made for a loyal client from Southeast Asia, taking over 2000 hours to complete, showcasing the unparalleled craftsmanship of Jaguar Classic.
The design inspiration for these cars comes from the last five commemorative models produced in 1974, with one being an elegant Signet Green and the other a mysterious Opal Black, both complementing each other in luxury.
Even more astonishing is Jaguar's collaboration with Deakin & Francis, a jewelry company with over 230 years of history, which bestows these classic models with unique custom jewelry, featuring precious 18K gold and top-grade silver details, making each car a work of art. The seats are covered in hand-stitched Bridge of Weir leather, while the central console is crafted from aluminum, engraved with patterns from Jaguar's historical archives, reflecting meticulous craftsmanship. Modern accessories such as a Bluetooth-enabled radio and heated front windshield bring together modern technology and vintage flair.
Both models are equipped with a 3.8-liter six-cylinder engine, updated with electronic fuel injection, and the manual transmission has been upgraded to a five-speed, enhancing driving pleasure and control. Although Jaguar has not disclosed the specific prices of these commemorative models, it is safe to say that their value will far exceed that of the restored models from a few years ago, becoming coveted treasures for car enthusiasts.
