Celebrating 50 Years of the E-Type Jaguar
For those living or plan to visit Downunder:
The Jaguar Car Club of Victoria plans to have a large display of E-
Type Jaguars ranging from the very first model as released to the
public in 1961 through to the last of the models when they ended
their production run in 1974, at this year�s Concours and Display
Day to be held on Sunday, November 27, on the o…val, at the
Wesley College Glen Waverley campus, 620 High Street Road, Glen
Waverley.
The club will mark the E-Type Jaguar�s special anniversary with an
extensive display of this highly recognizable and desirable model,
which is rarely seen in such numbers in any single gathering. Other
models will also be on display, which will give visitors the
opportunity to see some of the finest examples of this marque
spanning over 75 years of production. This will include the pre-war
SS vehicles to the latest super sleek and highly advanced aluminium-
bodied XK super cars.
More than 250 Jaguars will be on display as well as the select
entries taking part in the prestigious Concours d�Elegance where
cars are judged for outright authenticity and original condition,
and the Enthusiast Class that are judged for pride of ownership.
Some of the cars that will be judged or displayed are unique
throughout the world and only survive today because of Australia�s
kinder weather conditions, and because of the determination and
hard work of their respective owners to restore these beautiful
classic Jaguars to as near as possible original condition.
For those who enjoy the modern cars, the latest XF�s, XJ�s & XK�s
will also be displayed.
Other British car clubs will be invited to display their marques
and models in the attractive surroundings.
Food and drink outlets will be available along with car-related
trade stalls and Jaguar memorabilia on sale.
Entry will be $5 for individuals and $10 for families. Opening
times are 10 am to 3pm.
The Jaguar Car Club of Victoria is Australia�s oldest and largest
Jaguar club with more than 700 members from around metropolitan
Melbourne and country Victoria. The club has eight model registers
including the SS, MkIV, XKs; MkVs; the E-Types; the XJs, MkV11�
Mk10s; Mk1 & Mk11, S-Types and the Modern Classics.
It also has eight country and provincial registers covering most
parts of the State from Sunraysia to Gippsland.
