Eligible for just almost anything. Peter Auto, Masters, Spa 6 hours
Tour Auto, Modena Cento ore and then some

Designed by Malcolm Sayer, the Jaguar E-Type debuted in 1961, embodying a perfect blend of beauty and performance. Its aerodynamic lines, innovative suspension and 3.8-liter inline-six made that the E-Type quickly dominated races and rallies, including a class win at the 1961 Le Mans 24 Hours and victories in the Tourist Trophy. Drivers like Graham Hill and Briggs Cunningham praised its balance, power, and responsiveness, making it a favourite on both track and road. Journalists hailed it as a masterpiece, with The Times calling it “the most beautiful car ever made.” Its lightweight monocoque construction and independent suspension set new standards, cementing its legacy as a racing icon of the 1960s.

 

The 1963 Fixed Head Coupé version of the E-type’s Semi-Lightweight evolution combined the ultimate aerodynamic shape with the poise and purpose of a well-handling racing and rallying machine. Following the ideas of the factory’s Lightweight programme, Semi-Lightweights offer aluminium paneling with wider track, competition suspension and upgraded braking ability while still maintaining the sturdy steel components and road-going comfort that promote reliability as well as classic car rally suitability.

 

The E-Type remains a benchmark in historic motorsport – its timeless design and competitive spirit continue to thrill drivers and spectators alike at headline events like Le Mans Classic, the Goodwood Revival and the Spa Six Hours, while it is equally capable of shining in classic road-and-track events like the Tour Auto and the Modena Cento Ore or gunning for championship trophies in series ranging from Peter Auto Sixties Endurance, Masters Gentlemen Drivers, the GT & Sports Car Cup, Equipe GTS and SuperSixties.

 

The car we are offering was imported from the USA in 1995 and subsequently prepared for historic racing. After years of successful racing the current owner commissioned a full bare metal rebuild in 2021 including the installation of alloy body panels, a new 3.8L racing engine, new drive train and new suspension. Since early 2024 the car was only used in 3 events at Spa, Zandvoort and Dijon. The car was completely inspected, is in new condition, and ready to race.

 

We see a unique opportunity to buy a competitively priced car that is ready for all major historic events like Peter Auto’s Sixties endurance, Le Mans Classic, Goodwood, Masters Historic Racing, Tour Auto, Modena Cento Ore and many more.
