Jaguar E-Type (United Kingdom, 1961-1967)

 

This model had already been conceived around 1956, which is five years previous to its release date, mainly as a substitute for the D-Type. In 1961, the innovative Jaguar E-Type is born to soon become a legend amongst sports cars. It debuted at the Geneva Motor Show from that year.   The idea behind its creation was the merger, for as much as possible, between aerodynamics and advanced performance technology, driven by a powerful engine. The result should be a rather sleek and fast car, with the best possible handling. On the other side, general complaints about this first E-Type include a somewhat limited cabin and poor interior ventilation.
