Jaguar - Modèles d'exception

Jaguar, the iconic British brand representing post-war sports cars, has captivated generations. Born from the first Standard Swallow in the 1930s, Jaguar evolved in the 1950s and 1960s, creating roadsters, coupes, and convertibles with feline lines and sporty performance, cementing its reputation for excellence.

The XK 120, 140, and 150 models made Jaguar a success in the United States, culminating in the legendary Type E in 1961, an icon of the 60s. Thanks to its competition successes, especially at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, Jaguar has maintained its sporty image while also being associated with luxury sedans like the Mk2 and XJ series, symbols of "so British" comfort in the 70s and 80s.

Under the direction of Paul Walton, editor of Jaguar World magazine, and Colin Salter, automotive historian, this book presents the 30 most iconic models of the brand, from the 1931 SS1 to the upcoming new XKSS. With exceptional imagery, it immerses readers in the refined world of this unique brand.

Jaguar - Panorama illustré des modèles

William Lyons founded the Jaguar brand in 1945. From the start, it stood out for its elegant, high-performance, and affordable cars. Success came quickly, especially with the SS One.

Initially, Jaguar was just a model name: the SS 100, referring to its top speed of 100 mph - an impressive feat at the time. After the war, Jaguar became an independent brand, as the initials SS were dropped. The XK 120, 140, and 150 roadsters and coupés, along with the MK saloons, secured Jaguar's place among major manufacturers. The racing models C-Type and D-Type achieved great victories at Le Mans. The iconic E-Type, often called the most beautiful car of all time, elevated Jaguar to global fame.
