Don't forget the Eagle Speedster, it's not officially an E-Type... but its an E-type.

I initially thought it was an Eagle at first glance on my phone till I had a better look on laptop

The Eagle is an homage to/inpsired by/rip off of the original Jag model, so its hardly surprising they look very similar.

An Eagle Speedster would be one of my first lottery cars. Its not hugely different to an E-Type, but it is different enough that its not an E-Type IYSWIM. It sits lower on fatter wheels, has a different lower windscreen, smoother bodywork (e.g. look at the door handles). E-Type turned up to 11.

Its also the second best sounding road car ever IMO, skip to about 3:45 on the below vid. The best sounding is a Lexus LFA, which I would buy for the exhaust note alone :D

I'd probably have a Singer Porsche


I saw a prog of them being made and the attention to detail is amazing.

I've gone off wanting bikes for the moment ....
If I did it'd be some highly rodded Street bike with a groovy motor.

How about a classic 911 with an F1 V6 engine? That's an F1 engine that's actually been raced (even won a few races) too.
