All E-Types featured independent coil spring rear suspension with torsion bar front ends, nd four-wheel disc brakes, n-board at the rear, ll were power-assisted. Jaguar was one of the first vehicle manufacturers to equip cars with disc brakes as standard from the XK150 in 1958. The Series 1 can be recognised by glass-covered headlights (up to 1967), mall "mouth" opening at the front, ignal lights and tail-lights above bumpers and exhaust tips under the number plate in the rear.
Legend has it that when it went on display for the first time at the Geneva Motor Show in 1961, one other than Enzo Ferrari remarked that the E-type (known as the "XKE" in the U.S.) was the most beautiful car he'd ever seen. Mr. Ferrari knew a pretty car when he saw one and he might have been one of the first to express the sentiment, ut an incalculable number of others have said virtually the same thing and they're still saying it fifty years later. Designed by a noted aerodynamicist Malcolm Sayer, he E-type was meant to cheat the wind, ut its glass covered headlights, ong hood, hort rear deck and compound curves also coincidentally looked great. With a 0-60 time of around seven seconds and a 150 mph top speed, he Series I E-type was near the top of the early 1960s food chain. A 2+2 coupe was added to the coupe and convertible body styles in 1966. The 2+2 was the first E-type to be available with an automatic transmission. This sensational Jaguar has undergone an intensive pre-sale inspection by renowned expert 'Jag John' at the Park Place Service Center.
