- “An E-Type for the 21st Century” Tim Shaw from Car SOS describes Evolution E-Types as best in show at the recent London Motor Show.
The London Motor Show is a hard place to stand out from the crowd, there are just so many eye catching pieces to look at, however Tim Shaw from Car SOS managed to get close to the Jaguar Evolution E-Type and it is fair to say he absolutely blown away!
As an E-type owner, I am so happy that some one is re-doing the most beautiful car ever made. Lets face it, a 1960 car that was 20 years ahead of it's time is now only 40 years behind the times! Just don't make it electric and I'm happy to consider the upgrades.
This is perfection, what more can I say.
What a credit to our British engineers and craftsman, truly superb and beautiful 👌👌👌
This might be the most beautiful car ever made. Just wow.
I can’t decide which is the more beautiful. The bodywork or the engine🧐
Absolutely beautiful!
Wow! Just wow!
Stunning beauty. Well done.
Excellent colour
I do like how the wheels do fill out the arches more.gives it a more planted look
Going right back to the late '40's custom cars , we can see that car designers and builders were starting to take real care in 'centring' the wheel and tyre . The result is evident . You can see an 'even' gap between the tyre and the wheel-arch . I've seen some extraordinary classics and high-end street-rods and customs where the 'gap' is a little off . Also , as you say , 'filling' the arches needs to be considered , for a 'planted' look . Look at a Cobra 427 replica when it's been built with narrower wheels and tyres ! I know you need to leave 'working room' for suspension travel etc , and normal road use , but it can really look 'off' . I want one of these or an 'Eagle' , but it looks like I'll have to settle with customizing a good-old (?) Burago 1/18 scale .
Beautiful!
I had one of the last V12,absolutely stunning.
Most people will never be able to afford anything like this, doesn't matter if it's an Evolution E-Type, an Eagle E-Type or a real E-Type etc, they are just out of reach for most people. The only chance the average joe has of buying an E-Type today is a kit car like the JPR Wildcat. Even the Challenger E-Type's are fetching nearly 40 grand now, unless you want some abandoned resto project that the owner gave up on (likely due to being too costly to restore, but they always say the reason was because of ill health)), and even those tend to go for about 20 grand, then the only option is a Wildcat which you can still pick up for less than 10k, but even those are rising in value. Most people are lucky to have 10 grand.
Beautifully engineered.
A Mechanical Masterpiece Absolutely Stunning!
incredible
I have always heard how E types drive really well.
they do
Yes IT IS , ITS a wonderful moment in the life start this Car sind drife. I Love IT so much
When I win th lotto ........... the best restomod etype I hav ever seen
Really phantastic, indeed, let me add that.
Am I the only one that noticed and am surprised at the fact it is left-hand drive? Beautiful, but my wallet demands I stick with my xk8.
Always wanted one of these bad boys, let's see if I can buy one in the future
Interesting
I didn't catch the price, not that I could afford one, but like many I feel the E-Type Jaguar was the most beautiful car ever made.
Around £450,000👍
On the web $1million.....ouch!!! In 75 I bought a used 70 model roadster for $3,200 sold it 7 years later when parts became very hard to get (and it didn’t like unleaded low 92 highest octane gas) for $4,500. Have cried for decades that I couldn’t afford to keep a fabulous car that might have to sit for 10 days waiting on parts to come, needed a reliable vehicle 😢😢😢
@@rickandrew6397 Misery loves company. In 1976 I sold my black with red interior Porsche for $3300. Pending marriage and military duty. Should have stored it. Some of those are selling for 30x that now.
@@dgriffin6074 🤨😢feel you pain bud
You can't say they don't drive well. You can only assume the worst if you expect better.
That looks very close to the Chip Foose design of the car he built.
Want! C'mon lottery!
Oh Dear! Chip Foose has done his own take on how an "e" should be...........best you don't look! ......don't fret, he lives in America, bless! I bet his "e" cost a lot more than £600k.
I looked...... the wheels gave me the willies.
true, the Foose's truly ugly as can be, or not sublime at all, if you will call it this way.
@@spikespa5208 the chip foose car is awful. There is no comparison.
Why wouldn't they drive well, except for maybe the less comfy flatfloors? It's a take on the always outsold Eagle Speedster that's way more expensive. And yes, it's lovely, if you are into restomods.
I'LL TAKE 3 PLEASE
Excuse me .. why is it Left Hand Drive.?
Jag makes me speechless. What is the gearbox?
I had an e-type and it drove beautifully? I don't understand your comments. The original is much better. Sorry. Nice car though. Brilliant paintwork.
How much. It looks like a Eagle GT. What is the power and specs of the engine.
A good old type does drive well, he doesn't know what he is taking about.
Damned Brits!
body style is really beautiful....if i have lots of money i will buy a body from them ....but all the other parts i will use either honda or toyoyta
❤️🔥
Be still my beating heart!
and your flapping mouth.
@@dareisnogod5711 I guess we all know what your flapping mate.
The E Type doesn’t “ drive well” .... really ? Tim Shaw, he’s the guy who arses around in that tv show Car Sos.
As for this car, very nice, but it’s change for changes sake.
waau
You must have drove some heaps your opening comment is totally wrong a well sorted original car drives superb
MORON, don't make any more comments, anywhere, until you learn English. "You must have DRIVEN..."
@@dareisnogod5711 he's right, though, a sorted original drives just fine. And what about the four-valve head, I didn't hear anything about that.
Great.....but why the silly music. Who decides that the conversation we all wish to hear is lacking something and needs .............I’m lost for words, cue the music, that will sort everything out.
Brilliant car, but…LHD
Nah
Nope
Madness 👎🏻
Who is this goofy-looking guy & why is anyone listening to him ?
If you listened, he was introduced as Ury. The brains behind the car's enhancements.
