The Jaguar C-Type, a classic British sports car, is revered for its remarkable blend of elegance and performance. Realm Engineering, a company known for its dedication to preserving automotive heritage, has gained recognition for its meticulous recreations of this iconic model.
Originally developed in the early 1950s, the Jaguar C-Type was designed to compete in endurance racing. Its aerodynamic bodywork, advanced for its time, was crafted to minimize drag while enhancing stability at high speeds. The car was powered by Jaguar's legendary 3.4-litre inline-six engine, which delivered an exhilarating driving experience. The C-Type quickly made its mark on the racing scene, achieving significant success at events like the 24 Hours of Le Mans, where it claimed victory in 1951 and 1953. Realm's C-Type recreations capture the spirit of the original, while integrating modern engineering techniques. Each vehicle is handcrafted, ensuring attention to detail and authenticity. The process begins with a thorough examination of original C-Types, using historical data and photographs to guide the build. One of the standout features of a Realm C-Type is its bespoke chassis, designed to replicate the original's agility and responsiveness. The suspension system is carefully tuned to provide a balance of comfort and performance, enabling drivers to experience the thrill of driving a classic race car without sacrificing modern handling standards. The interior reflects the simplicity and elegance of the era, with period-correct instrumentation and materials that evoke nostalgia. Performance-wise, Realm's C-Type does not disappoint. Equipped with a potent version of Jaguar's 4.2 litre XK engine, it delivers impressive power and torque, allowing for exhilarating acceleration and speed. The sound of the engine is a symphony of mechanical artistry, resonating with a throaty growl that enthusiasts adore. Driving a Realm C-Type is not just about speed; it's about the connection to automotive history. Owners often report a profound sense of pride and joy when behind the wheel, feeling as if they are part of a storied legacy. Each car is a tribute to the ingenuity of Jaguar and the spirit of competition that defined the early days of motorsport.
Originally registered on 1st July 2016 this Jaguar C-Type presents beautifully in the colour combination of Platinum Silver with blue interior. The fastidious vendor has ensured this example has always been very well cared for, stored correctly in a purpose-built garage and never standing on the seats to get in the car. Fitted with a 4.2 litre version of the XK engine which is mated to a five-speed gearbox to enhance motorway driving. Cooling is via Evans waterless coolant and the engine is also fitted with 123 electronic ignition for greater reliability. Triple Weber side draught carburettors contribute towards making this a great and exciting car to drive. With painted Old English roundels and a bonnet sargent stripe, together with R sport sill storage areas this is a Jaguar C-Type to turn heads. The vendor has enjoyed the car immensely having attended Goodwood revival and, Hampton Court Concours and Le Mans Classic recently. In summary, a Jaguar C-Type built by Realm Engineering is more than a vehicle; it's a celebration of automotive excellence, craftsmanship, and racing heritage, offering a timeless experience for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
