Jaguar E-Type

Vehicle Description

The Jaguar E-Type (UK) or XK-E (US) is a British automobile manufactured by Jaguar between 1961 and 1975. Its combination of good looks, high performance, and competitive pricing established the car as an icon of 60s and 70s motoring. A great success for Jaguar, over seventy thousand E-Types were sold during its lifespan. The E-Type Series 3 was introduced in 1971, with a new 5.3 L twelve-cylinder Jaguar V12 engine, uprated brakes and standard power steering.  The brand new V12 engine was originally developed for the Le Mans series. It was equipped with four Zenith carburetors and built by connection of two six-cylinder XK engines. The final engine produced 203 kW (272 hp), massive torque and an acceleration of 0-60 mph in less than 7 seconds. The Series 3 is easily identifiable by the large cross-slatted front grille, flared wheel arches, wider tyres, four exhaust tips and a badge on the rear that proclaims it to be a V12.
