Jaguar has always had an excellent reputation for producing top quality cars with outstanding performance. This famous marque has a huge and dedicated following throughout the world, all of whom appreciate Jaguar's elegant and timeless styling, coupled with superb engineering.

Chris Harvey describes the colorful history of Jaguar, examines the cars, and dwells on the many competition successes. He begins by covering the pre-war years, including details of the Swallow sidecar and early SS saloons, plus the spectacular SS100 Jaguars. Then come chapters on the sensational Jaguar XKs; the beautiful Mark VII, VIII and IX saloons that brought fast and luxurious motoring to thousands; the racing years with the Le Mans-winning C and D types which still raise the pulses of spectators in today's historic car races; and the wonderful E type, the sports car with such a searing performance that it took the car world by storm in the 1960s and is still one of the most popular classics.

The last two sections of this carefully researched and entertaining book cover the Jaguar saloons that dominated their class: the unforgettable Marks 1 and

2; the Mark X, Stype and 420; plus the highly acclaimed XJ series, the unrivalled flagships of the Jaguar range and still remarkable value for money.

Containing more than 75 superb full-color illustrations, the majority specially commissioned from a top motoring photographer, another title in this successful series which will appeal not only to the many thousands of devoted Jaguar enthusiasts, but also to car lovers everywhere who will appreciate the informative text and the truly breathtaking photographs.
