Title: Jaguar to Build 25 "New" D-Types
Post by: cosworth151 on February 08, 2018, 07:45:49 PM

Jaguar Land Rover's Classic Works, the folks that brought us the "continuation" E Type light weights and XKSS's, is bringing back Jag's crown jewel. Back in the mid-1950's, Coventry had planned to build 100 D-Types. They ended up building only 75. The other 25 will now be built. The lucky buyers can even have their choice of long nose or short nose.

I'm telling my daughter Angie I want a long nose for Fathers Day.

D type a great car, but I always preferred the C type. Not really sure why.

How about a hand built replica?
