After the E-Type Lightweight, XK-SS and D-Type, Jaguar has now announced their fourth Continuation Car. Just in time for the 70th anniversary of the C-Type, the British brand is launching eight new examples. An interesting development, considering that Ecurie Ecosse<\/a><\/strong> also announced a new edition just two weeks ago. The British racing team, which won Le Mans with the C-Type in 1952, is producing seven examples. Jaguar Classic meanwhile uses archival documents as well as CAD data created in-house. These were created by a 3D scan of an original C-Type, namely the winning car of the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1953.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With this base vehicle, Jaguar also defined the technical specifications of the Continuation Series. In 1953, disc brakes were already being used all round at Le Mans. Next to that the 3.4-liter inline six-cylinder engine received a power boost to around 220 hp. Another new feature was an additional air scoop on the right-hand side of the engine hood. This also finds its way onto the Continuation Cars. A nice detail in the interior are the slots for the starter spark plugs underneath the driver’s door.<\/p>\n\n\n
