Jaguar E-Type V12 Series 3 (1971-1974)

Ever since its first appearance at the 1961 Geneva motor show, the Jaguar E-Type has been instantly identifiable, all over the world, by its distinctive and highly individual styling. Enzo Ferrari called the E-Type „The most beautiful car ever made‘. In 2004, Sports Car International magazine placed the E-Type at „Number One“ on their list of Top Sports Cars of the 1960s and as recently as March 2008, the Jaguar E-Type ranked First in a The Daily Telegraph online list of the world‘s „100 most beautiful cars“ of all time.

10 years after its debut the Mk III was introduced which featured a brand new 5.3 litre V12 Jaguar Engine to supplement the 4.2 litre „XK“ motor, making Jaguar, Ferrari and Lamborghini the only three manufacturers offering a V12 road car. To match the improved performance it fitted with ventilated disc brakes at the front and air scoops at the rear. The track was 9 inches wider which, combined with wider wheels and „Anti-Dive“ front suspension geometry, gave the car much better roadholding, particularly under breaking. Lucas transistorised ignition and Adwest power assisted rack and pinion steering where now standard. The new version of the Roadster had a 2+2 wheelbase which made the car longer, roomier and increased the „Cubby Box“ luggage space. The „space“ in the fuel tank was also improved to 18 gallons (70 litres) capacity and the turning circle was improved to 36ft.
