...a motoring legend was created. From Jaguar in Coventry came the XK 120... a car designed to showcase the remarkable talents of William Lyons and his engineering team. At its heart was the sophisticated XK engine. |
|
| Today the XK 120
is prized by collectors and enthusiasts. The engine though went on to power generations of Jaguar saloons and sport cars. It spurred five great victories at Le Mans. It was under the bonnet of the legendary E -type. It was at the heart of the magnificent XJ saloons. The XK engine ended its days nobly in the stately Daimler Limousine just a few short years ago. |
|
| Today Jaguar is
celebrating the fiftieth anniversary of this legendary engine and its birth in the XK 120 sports car....the evocative heritage that helped create today's world beating Jaguar saloons and sport cars. |
