British Motor Museum
The world's largest collection of historic British cars
This temporary exhibition commemorated the 60th anniversary of the launch of the Jaguar E-Type - brought to you by the Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust.
The exhibition uncovered the story of the evolution of the E-Type from the racing C and D-Types of the 1950s to its launch in 1961 and subsequent successful racing V12s from the 1970s and included a special selection of 8 cars illustrating the evolution of the E-Type. Most of the cars displayed were from the JDHT collection and some were generously loaned for the exhibition.
A number of rarely seen Jaguar-related documents, advertisements, artworks and artefacts accompanied the stunning vehicles.
