I've always liked Jaguars. I really liked the XK-120 through XK-150 Roadsters but I really like the XKE.s and it amazes me when I think back at how many of them were on the road where I lived in Southern Cal9iforna back in the mid-sixties when I was in high school and how they are considered somewhat rare today.

The XKE's were pretty fast and lightweight with the Overhead cam six but more power is better and eventually they put a V-12 in the XKE but they also lengthened the wheelbase and increased the weight. Jay Leno has a V-12 XKE that someone shortened and lightened and boosted the horsepower of the V-12 and created almost the Perfect V-12 XKE.  The only thing that would have made it perfect would be if it were British Racing Green instead of red.

 

I do like the XKE's.
