It was a wild and free time—mini skirts, French bikinis, Andy Warhol and the Beatles were just some of the symbols of an era when creativity, not productivity, were in the forefront of the news. The automotive industry was lagging behind the times: the 1961 Corvette, the Porsche 356 and the various MGs and Triumphs were hold-overs from the 1950s. Then, suddenly, there was the XKE! Jaguar sprang this tour de force on the public at the 1961 Geneva Auto Show, where it absolutely stole the show. The XKE borrowed stylistically and mechanically from the famous Le Mans-winning D-Type Jaguars. The body was like nothing anyone had ever seen. Smooth and balanced, the Jaguar E-Type (known in the U.S. as the XKE) swept back from covered headlights to a long hood, ending with a gently rounded tail. There were two models, a coupe that was perhaps more stylish and a sporty roadster. Harold Pace / autoMedia.com TERMS: Car is sold as is, where is with no warranties or guarantees implied.
