In the 1960's Steve McQueen may have enjoyed riding motorcycles, but his passion for classic Jaguar cars was undeniable. In particular, his love for the Jaguar E type resulted in an affair with this fine automobile which became and was a part of his collection until his death. Most recently, as many people may know, this very car was offered at the Mecum Auction, and sadly enough the car wasn't sold because the reserve was not met. One can confidently assume that this car will be purchased at some future date, and it's owner will cherish this amazing car as much as it's original owner did.
The Jaguar E Type has been from the moment it was first introduced to the general public an inspiring automobile, and has certainly motivated many an admirer to purchase it the instant they saw this finely crafted car. First presented at the Geneva Auto Show in 1961, it was originally meant to be a replacement for the Coventry, which was England's D-Type racer car. An irrefutable fact is that from the initial presentation of this fine automobile it immediately became a hit.
