The summer of love may have gone by the time the Series II appeared, but the love for the Jaguar E-type, then as now, knew no bounds.
Since the E-type made its sensational debut in 1961, some devotees were wary of subsequent developments, but change it did. The XK6 4.2-litre engine pre-dated the arrival of the Series II, appearing in the two-seater Sports and coupes from 1964 and then the elongated 2+2s from 1966. The 4.2 is a smooth and powerful engine that offers refinements over the previous 3.8, including better low-end torque and mid-range pickup.
The Series II was announced at the Earl’s Court motor show in 1968, continuing the range of three different models at the same price but offering a revised look with some notable new features and options. For many Jag fans, it is the one to have, while for others it is the one they can afford. As Series I prices continue to soar, demand for Series II will rise; they’re not going to get any cheaper, so now’s the time to see what’s available.

Great experience in this super old car, made even better by the instructor !
Steve HarveyHad a great experience driving 3 classics. Everything well organised, staff friendly and would recommend. One note - £2 'surprise' parking cost Abingdon. Couple of chaps at the entrance - felt dodgy but seems legit.
Stephen OkeHad a fabulous day at Three Sisters race track. I was gifted this experience for my birthday and had the opportunity to drive 4 cars. The E-Type will always come out on top for me! Thanks to the friendly and experienced instructors. I shall be back!
Bev Harrived eventually after though nobodies fault my 4 th cancelation queues look huge but do move quite swiftly my third drive of the day was in the jaguar e type ive driven an etype before but this one although a little tatty must have been race tuned the thottle was very responsive the steering tight and the brakes fierce and the instructer next to me brlliant thank you
david BayleyHad a fantastic day. A very well organised operation. Paul C was a fantastic instructor with lots of helpful tips making my driving experience more pleasurable.
Raymond ScorgieHad a fantastic day at Castle Combe circuit driving the E-Type Jag, great old school car. the instructor Gary, was really helpful and made the experience great fun, looking forward to doing it again
Robert ChildsHad an excellent time driving the E-type, always been a favourite of mine and so glad I got the chance to take it around the track. Is a bit of a squeeze to get in if you are a taller or larger chap like me.
