Eagle, makers of the exclusive Eagle E-Type has introduced the E-Type Speedster Lightweight - an authentic '60s Jaguar E-type reworked with more muscular styling, fresh classic detailing, and the performance of a contemporary supercar.
This outstanding car will make its public debut at Salon Privé, the luxury supercar and Concours d’Elegance, taking place at Syon House in west London on 22-24 June. Henry Pearman, the founder of Eagle, says of the new Speedster Lightweight: 'The elements in this remarkable alchemy are an original Jaguar E-type, 30 years of dedicated experience, and the absolute cream of our widely acclaimed engineering developments and upgrades.'
Eagle has a global reputation as an E type specialist, and offers an unparalleled collection of magnificent E-Types for sale, ranging from the earliest original specification dealer launch examples through to fully developed cars.
Beneath the Speedster Lightweight's body, every component has been thoughtfully and skilfully reworked, improved and often lightened resulting in a handmade automotive masterpiece with a weight of just 1000kg. The technical tour de force is the original Lightweight E-type based aluminium 4.7 litre fuel injected engine and aluminium drive train.
While retaining an external appearance identical to the original, they enable the car to offer a power- to- weight ratio matching that of the very latest Porsche 911 Turbo
