Drawing inspiration from Jaguar's Le Mans-winning D-Type, the E-Type combined its racing heritage with highly competitive pricing and a claimed top speed of 150mph, swiftly becoming a 1960s icon. The earliest models, known as Series One, featured in this kit, were manufactured from 1961 to 1967, equipped with either a 3.8L or 4.2L engine. More than 22,000 E-Types were sold. Jaguar offered the E-Type in various forms, including a 2+2 coupé, the limited edition 'Lightweight E-Type', and the low drag coupé, among other versions. To enhance the enjoyment Airfix provides to many, these Starter Sets are ideal for beginners. This superb model includes everything necessary to begin building, serving as a perfect introduction to the realm of scale modelling.
