A model-by-model account of Jaguar and its history, its automotive achievements and engineering expertise, from the Austin-Swallow of the 1920s to Jaguars of the 21st century. This electronic edition is in Adobe Digital ebook format. It includes landmark Jaguars from the 1930s '100' models, through XKs and saloons from Mark V to Mark 10. There are specifications and details of racing Jaguars and road cars such as the Mark 2 saloons and the one-off XJ13, failures and successes right up to the XF and XJ. It takes in concept cars such as the R-Coupe shown at Frankfurt a week after the centenary of founder Sir William Lyons' birth on September 4 2001. It illustrates how Jaguar design could develop in years to come. It describes how aluminium technology for the Jaguars was: "Not so much retooling for a new model, as creating a new branch of motor industry." Jaguar began in 1922 building motorcycle sidecars, and evolved into one of the world's leading luxury car manufacturers winning the Le Mans 24 Hours classic sports car race seven times, and competing in Formula 1 grand prix racing. Style pacesetter and engineering innovator, Jaguar became a cultural icon with the E-type of 1961, the XJ series of saloons and the S-type, XK8 and XKRs of the 1990s. This book is a model-by-model account of how this accomplishment came about, from the Austin-Swallow of the 1920s to Jaguars of the 21st century.
