Jaguar C-Type | Great British Classics

Meticulously hand beaten from sheets of aluminium the sweeping form of the Jaguar C-Type is a stunning piece of craftsmanship. Combining smooth flowing edges and exaggerated curves the designers created a shape that utilised advanced aerodynamics to dominate on the race track whilst remaining one of the most elegant vehicles ever to grace the road.



Created as a homage to the Le Mans legend this recreation by Hawker Racing looks utterly superb; presented in a period correct shade of Pastel Green the simple lines of the C-Type remain undisturbed throughout, with the side exit exhaust perfectly tucked into the passenger side whilst up front the chrome grille and concealed central spotlight complete the Jaguars iconic facade.



Having built their reputation restoring WWII Hurricanes, Hawker are masters of their craft, and so it comes as no surprise that the attention to detail in this recreation is second to none. Using a genuine car as a reference point every panel was painstakingly recreated using traditional methods which becomes clear on close inspection, with key details such as purposely visible rivets showing through the solid paintwork just as they would have on 1950’s the original.
