"Nobody's pussy" - Jaguar A cool classic among cool classics: the Jaguar E-Type Series 1 4. 2 OTS For the past 59 years, the E-Type has done what it was designed to do: drive, amaze and make people smile. With its long nose, curvaceous hips and sensual lines, draped in dark blue with a cognac leather interior, this car is truly in its element. A refined lady, but one who might give you a mischievous look from across the Christmas table, while you're deep in conversation with your father-in-law. The E-Type Series I made its European debut on 15 March 1961 at the Geneva Motor Show and in April of the same year in the United States at the New York Motor Show. Did you know that Enzo Ferrari never said it was the most beautiful car of all time? Our example? Straight out of Q Branch! Recently restored, it was delivered to us direct from the restorer, with some amazing upgrades. Among its repertoire, it has new K&N air filters, modern disc brakes, shock absorbers, 123 ignition and a classic radio with Bluetooth for 'a few tunes'. That's all well and good, but we prefer the pulsating sound of this Jaaaaaag! What's more, it sports identical numbers and retains its original exterior colour, tastefully matched to the cognac interior, cut with the precision that only a Savile Row tailor knows. Planning a ski trip in an E-Type this year, or a trip straight to the south of Spain? You won't be disappointed with this beauty, which is why it's also high on our list of favourites.
