I'm impressed they actually continued the D-line. And I would love to make Jaguar happy. Also a great idea for other brands to recreate some of their old legends.
No other classic brand combined such beauty with a great winning record and affordability of their production models.
In 1967 at an SCCA regional race in Vidalia, GA, Bobby Rahal’s uncle, Ed Rahal, drove his D to second place finishes behind a Shelby 350 GT. Seeing that car in a real race was one of the highlights of my life.
I love cars, I was born in the industrial Midlands of England in 1942 where Jaguars were made, they are in my blood and I am immensely proud to know where I came from.
But to say that seeing one of these cars is the HIGHLIGHT OF MY LIFE is LUDICROUS.
In your case IF it is true then you must have led a very hollow and sad life.
Oh I should say that I live in the USA and have done since 1970, my wife is also English and we and our family are about as close to our families in England as it is possible to be, we travel back and forth frequently.
Science-is-Truth Ok, for your sake, sometime I’ll edit the response to the word memory. Will that suit you?
jockellis NO, what does ”I’ll edit the response to the word memory” actually mean?
More manufacturers should do this. Some cars were just perfect.
Wow! Just imagine pulling up in this!
Gorgeous. Fascinating to see a brand new 3.4 litre XK engine under that curvaceous bonnet too. The shut lines look good. Would love to do something like this. Wonderful.

Hey, noticed that left door panel at bottem rear is not seating properly. At 2.43. But what an awesome car, still incredible after 63 years(the original)
I love old Jaguars. Thanks.
Awesome Idea! Other Manufacturers should do that too!
This guy is a passionate speaker!
one of the most beautiful cars ever made.
OMG one of my all time favorites if i win millions I might buy one
I want one the D type is my favourite car of all time
Adam Davies if you have a few million quid to spare, Jag will be glad to supply you with one.
a retrorod from the factory. more companies should do this.
The Jaguar D and E types were engineering sculptures. On the American front, the Ford GT40 was the one. Greetings from a Coventry kid living in the USA. Vintage/Retro body designs had it all embracing art deco features.
Dear boy- don’t you know the original GT40 was built in Langley Bucks near Slough UK at the Ford Transit van assembly plan? Not a US car at all. I know because I lived there and saw them drive the GT40s on the the recently constructed M4 in 1965-68 timeframe. I now live in Los Angeles but remember also the Shelby Cobra cars were UK chassis based with big old Ford blocks installed
Thank you for the update.
This is my favorite car- period. It's stunningly beautiful. 👍
Please build the xj13 next.
M ej....l second that...l gather you are a fond of that car as well as l....
Dinos Metaxas I think its Malcolm sayers best work,
Watch the series here on TH-cam called "building the legend" its neville's "workshop copy" using malcom sayers original drawings, although its not really drawings more like 3d vector notes, and the history behind engine number 2 of the xj13.
I've wondered about that and probably they would be uniquely challenged by the 13's 12-cylinder mid-mounted engine. They have too much integrity to swap in their standard inline six. But they are making a fortune from these restos and providing a halo effect to their current line. I agree the 13 was the prettiest Jag ever, and that's saying something. Because of that, and that they are running out of classic models, I think in time they will relent and build a few, priced in the millions.
@@johntechwriter Making the twin-cam heads for the XJ13 engine would be problematic. Jaguar only made a tiny number of the dohc V12, perhaps 3. It has twin cams per bank, with the inlet tracts down the centre-line of the cams.
There are suggestions that Jaguar have a spare engine for the XJ13. Another was found in Germany and sold on Ebay. It was bought by Neville Swayles who had an exacting replica of the XJ13 made, with massive input by Jaguar staff who designed and developed the original car. A replica engine was made in the US by Fox Engineering for Scott Pinski's car, no idea if it's an accurate copy or a look-alike only.
Ladies and Gentlemen we proudly present to you true car...
The coolest car ever built!
The E class has always been my favorite sports car, and I often wondered why replicas weren't built using modern components. How wonderful to hear the snarl of the straight six again. Bravo!
William best - Eagle does build brand new E-types (that's not E class) at over a million quid a pop.
I understand. I was just reminiscing about the era. I'd never seen a D-Type until I began attending vintage events later on, but as a youth E-Types were numerous. I'd always admired them. Thanks.
Jaguars Prototypes always good
The most beautiful car ever.............
I want one so bad.
You and me both.
Well we now know what Tim Hannig looks like up close but it would have been more desirable had you actually spent that camera time on the car.
The dopes thing I've seen a manufacturer do!
I would love to witness the forming of that bonnet from the old masters of the English wheel .
Bruce Burns - Yes, but the nose is the absolute pinnacle of metalwork. Purrrfect...
If only I still had a soul to sell to be able to buy one of these
Still? What gives?
stupid statement...
I would rather pay good money for one of these recreations than a modern super car😁
Now if Ford would build some more Mustand Boss 429s! And Dodge some winged Datona's. This is truly awesome
This is a great achievement and I wish more manufacturers would do this but I don't think they are doing the existing owners/collectors of this particular car a favour because adding more copies which are better made than the originals is bound to depreciate the existing value of the individual D-types that have survived.
I saw an interview with Lord March of Goodwood fame, who stated he would not allow these replicas to race in historic events at Goodwood, glad I never rushed out and bought one now.
Not so! They originality buffs will ALWAYS value an original car made in period over a perfect copy...
I want a Morris cooper s 1071 please
Brilliant video. Unfortunatly these cars will be track only in UK, as they do not conform to the current standards set for new cars. H
That's because the D-Type was never a road car. It was a Sport Racing car built specifically for races like Le Mans. Although they were registered for the road and driven to the track, they were racing cars and completely unsuited to road use. The road version was the XKSS, and Jaguar have already built some of those in 2017. If you really wanted to drive a modern D-type on the road, you could put it through the SVA test exactly like any other special.
This is a cool thing all manufacturers should be doing (especially Ferrari). I'm guessing this will somehow still be better made and more reliable than any modern Jaguar/Land Rover car.😂
sucksqueezebangblow
Yes to Ferrari!!! Some of those late 50s to mid 1960s low volume specials for racing were among the finest cars ever conceived..
Jennifer WhiteWolf I would love to see a 1957 250 California
sucksqueezebangblow I would love to have this model
Its cool for me because i make them at my work place 😁
@@sammy_boy9952 make jaguar? Or ferrari
Less than 10 years had passed since the Recent Unpleasantness endedwhen the D-Type white paper was laid down in the engineering section. Who all did they expect to sell to?
Please build the Jaguar Mark 10
I think the other brands should bring back their iconic models
Oh God please let them do an XJ13
I wonder if Alfa Romeo could be persuaded to do some recreations from the 50s - early 70s?
Yes ! GTA/GTV Alfas would be fantastic to see on the road today 😃
Those 4 Mercedes who gave a thumbs down should be watching
Mercedes utube clips...
Is this based on the chassis built by Race Car Replicas in Michigan USA, or was it done from scratch in UK? RCR has a very accurately done chassis of these ready to finish out with Jaguar hardware. Nice to see the early Jags getting the attention they deserve.
Tata/JaguarLandRover are building them in Coventry UK at the heritage centre, they have quite a big workforce there building retro cars for the super rich including restored E types. Not great for all the specialists out there that have been keeping the marque alive IMO
Oliver Marks That IS AWESOME!!!! I hope they keep this up with continued production, and with other vintage models. Stunning cars, ... simply stunning. I can think of no better fair weather weekend joy than a D-Type.
You can't drive anything nice in Mich as its legally a "NO Fault" state.
@Oliver Marks It will have literally zero impact on 'all the specialists out there that have been keeping the marque alive', because Jaguar are only building 25 of them, along with the 9 XKSSs they made last year. A 'real' D-type is worth over two million pounds, so any specialist capable of handling that caliber of work is not going to be concerned by a few new cars appearing on the scene - which won't require any significant maintenance work anyway. The new cars will either be raced, in which case the owner will already have an arrangement with a suitable specialist, or sit in a thermostatically controlled garage forever.
While the JLR Classic Works team of 120 people seems large compared with your average garage in a railway arch, it's a tiny percentage of the JLR workforce. The majority of the work done at the facility is maintenance and restoration of customer's classic Jaguars and Land Rovers. The team building the Continuation cars is just a handful of people within the Classic Works team. Jaguar made the cars in the first place, so they have every right to run a facility restoring and maintaining them. It's also worth remembering that JLR are training people in skills which have almost completely been lost.
I want one in British Racing Green.
And they will sell for $1mil+! Beautiful car!
I would love to have a car like this but seeing the price tags on the Internet. Could you make this model that would be great that is my dream car
are any left for sale?
Oh please Jaguar go through your archives and recreate the 2001 X-Type!!
So you're the one that liked them?
Mercedes should do it with 280S and gullwing door as well
What color is that D type?
But will these be allowed to compete in the Historic Racing Series?
blxtothis - Yes, already approved, as are the E-type continuation models from Eagle.
Deliciousness
Next time use the correct microphone for this situation. Audio is audible but horrible.
How much for one?
Круто было бы если вернули JAGUAR XJ220
Now bring back the Defender.
😍😍😍😍
How can they legally sell those cars?
Well, you see, they make a car and somebody gives them money to own it. It's easy. Seriously, what sort of stupid question is that?
Maybe the best looking car ever made,(sports car) you can park this next to any thing,and you will notice it.🏁🏁🇬🇧🇬🇧🆒
Wouldn't it be good if they built the XJS properly?
Ford ....please start building mk1&2 escorts
Porsche should make 550s with 4 cam engines
Fave car of all time. Someone buy me one. ... :-0
Never cared for that wing. I prefer the headrest that sloped down....Short Nose please. I feel a lottery win coming....
Did he say xkss? I hope thats next.
The XKSS continuation cars have already been built.
@@JohnRoberts-yh3ep I miss my British Sports Car Magazines before Internet days...
OK Send me one. still don't have one of them.. Fish~
too much bla bla. I want to see a doku about the process!
9 original D type owner dislikes
Talks about everything but the main thing, money! You got enough and you can have anything you want, including a hand made copy of an existing historic sports car. With nobody spending the money then they dead in the water- just like the originals. When he says the time is right he means there are people with money to spend!
Andrew Wilson - If you gotta ask, you canna afford it - sorry.
Alan Hardman I am under no illusion about that! Cars like this don't come with six figure price tags,they firmly into seven or eight digit numbers! It's in the rarified bubble of the hyper rich who can have anything they want and search out possessions just because they are rare and expensive. A typical owner will have a property portfolio, amazing car collection,collection of fine art and such, a yacht. Plane or helicopter etc etc. Pity car will never be driven but live in an air conditioned secure storage unit with occasional trips to Goodwood etc
Andrew Wilson i
If you need to ask the price then you can't afford one
Just a bummer when you consider how much the brand is struggling. Tata doesn’t know what to do with them. This is a smart ploy to cash in on their amazing heritage and try to appease the guys upstairs. Such an amazing car though.
I couldn't agree more........but it's too late.We only have ourselves to blame for the shoddy mess of BL and the disgraceful indifference of the industry-that was!!
SHORTNOSE !
That tells you about the new cars. No soul, no beauty. Computers are having all the fun, instead of the driver.
Ferrari could do this !!!
Activate the bullshit.
I think doing this will make the originals less valuable and less special.
Denis Stoyanov if anything it will make the older builds more desirable !
splashpit, but they must be original spec, or Jag. approved mods.
Denis Stoyanov - Not bloody likely!
I want one so bad.
