Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust

Jaguar E-type 77 RW
at Geneva Motor Show

The Trust are planning to send two of our historic E-types to the E-Type 60 Festival at Shelsley Walsh, the first and the last E-type Roadsters: 77 RW and HDU 555N re-uniting 77 RW with 9600 HP, the two press cars used at the Geneva launch in March 1961.

This weekend will be action-packed with activity on the hill each day and all day, together with entertainment focused on the ’60s and its outrageous trends.

Including a display of all 13 models of E-type and introducing guest star the
Mini – unique icons of the ’60s combining to illustrate the revolution in car design and lifestyle.

The Series II and Series III E-type, the latter with the brilliant new V12 engine, propel us into the ’70s where 1960s’ Op Art is superseded by flower power and the hippy culture.
