The stylish and imposing XKSS was a road-going version of Jaguar’s very successful D-Type race car. Originally white with a red interior, this example was purchased by actor and performance-car aficionado Steve McQueen from its second owner. After acquiring the rare Jaguar, McQueen had it repainted a favorite shade of green, polished the Dunlop wheels, and had the interior re-trimmed in black by renowned hot rod upholsterer Tony Nancy. A capable mechanic, McQueen did much of the maintenance work himself.

McQueen enjoyed driving his XKSS fast and is reported to have recieved so many tickets that his driver’s license was almost suspended twice during his first year of ownership.

Seen this lovely old Jag at a few shows now and it always looks exceptionally clean ... that colour is so understated and suits the car really well.

1957 Jaguar C-Type - ULE 164

nobody@ipernity.com (autofantasia) — Tue, 28 Jun 2016 14:49:15 +0000

The Jaguar C-Type (also called the XK120-C) is a racing sports car built by Jaguar, which according to Wikipedia was only sold from 1951 to 1953.

However, the records show this one as being built and registered in 1957. So once again I'm slightly puzzled and left wondering if it might be a replica, but for the purposes of tagging it I'm going to give this one the benefit of the doubt.

Given that the records say this is meant to be an XJ6 I'm guessing that it is in fact a replica SS100, which has most likely used the XJ6 as a donor vehicle.

1973 Jaguar E-Type Series 3 - VAT 777

This one is for Ann ...

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 and the final engine could supposedly propel this 'big cat' from 0-60 mph in less than 7 seconds.

The short wheelbase FHC body style was discontinued and so the V12 was available only as a convertible and 2+2 coupé. The newly used longer wheelbase now offered significantly more room in all directions. 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.

The Mk2 Jaguar arrived in 1959 and went on to become one of the motoring icons of the Sixties before being replaced by the sensational XJ6.

1950 Jaguar XK120 - KRU 600

autofantasia has posted:

The Jaguar XK120 was manufactured by Jaguar between 1948 and 1954. It was the company's first sports car since the SS 100, which ceased production in 1940.

The standard of finish on this one was superb, but for some reason I only came away with this detail shot ... I can only assume that there were always too many people around it to get a clean shot of it overall.

Hopefully, I'll get another chance somewhere else to shoot it.

Okay, time to try and get a few more cars onto ipernity ... starting with another E-Type spotted at Harewood House back in 2011.

Interestingly, although DVLA says it was manufactured in 1966, they also say it was only first registered in 1983 so I'm wondering could it be a kit car or was it a barn find?
