Drive
The Pulse of the C-Type and the Joy of 5-Speeds
At its heart beats the legendary C-Type cylinder head, the very engine technology that conquered Le Mans. The roar of the twin carburetors paired with sport camshafts evokes the golden age of Jaguar racing. Beyond its vintage soul, the integration of a Getrag 5-speed gearbox, Mallory electronic ignition, and a high-performance radiator ensures a smooth, contemporary cruising experience that defies the limitations of most classic cars.
Exterior
Aristocratic Poise in Vivid Red
The deep, vibrant Carmine Red bodywork commands attention from every angle. The Drophead Coupe’s flowing waistline creates a silhouette that is both graceful and muscular. Hidden beneath its beauty are formidable upgrades: front disc brakes and GAZ dampers, providing a level of handling and stopping power that matches its breathtaking speed.
