Built with over 3,000 hours of expert craftsmanship, these limited editions embody Jaguar's passion, skill, and commitment to authenticity. The C-type Continuation revealed in 2021, celebrates the iconic car's landmark victories with a 3.4-litre straight-six engine producing 220 bhp, limited to just sixteen examples.
These Continuations have been engineered using 3D CAD and original period source data, ensuring absolute authenticity. Sixty-four years after the original D-type's debut, Jaguar Classic resumed production, crafting 25 exclusive vehicles to the authentic specification.
With the ability to choose between 1955-spec Shortnose or 1956-spec Longnose bodywork, clients are guaranteed accurate reproductions thanks to Jaguar Classic's access to original production drawings. The presentations at Monterey Car Week are a testament to Jaguar Classic's dedication to preserving and honouring its legacy.
