car description

Experience the unique allure of the Jaguar C-Type in a masterful recreation, crafted by Rotor Cars in Argentina using the foundation of a Jaguar S. This exclusive vehicle boasts a handcrafted aluminum body that perfectly captures the elegance and style of the original C-Type. Under the hood, a powerful Jaguar 4.2-liter 6-cylinder engine, paired with a classic 4-speed Moss gearbox, delivers a dynamic driving experience and the unmistakable sound cherished by enthusiasts of historic sports cars.

The car was imported from the USA to Germany in 2019, where it underwent a comprehensive partial restoration. Since then, it has been continuously optimized and meticulously enhanced through 2023 to ensure both its reliability and authenticity. The result is a vehicle that not only pays tribute to the history of British motorsport but also seamlessly combines cutting-edge technology with timeless design.

This recreation is far more than just a car – it is an homage to the racing legend that is the Jaguar C-Type, offering enthusiasts and collectors a rare opportunity to own an automotive masterpiece. Whether on the road or at exclusive events, this vehicle turns heads and delivers an unparalleled driving experience.

History of the series

The Jaguar XK 120 C, also known as the C-Type, made a significant contribution to motorsport history. The production of the C-Type was only tolerated by Sir William Lyons, Jaguar's founder and owner—he did not sell racing cars but road-legal vehicles. Lyons agreed to the project solely because of the promising promotional successes it could bring.

As anticipated, the C-Type went on to win the 24 Hours of Le Mans a total of five times and secured pole position at the Monaco Grand Prix Sport. Between 1951 and 1953, only 53 units were produced, 43 of which were road-legal.
