Hi All, This is a post I made on June 20th 2016. I did say that I was writing/researching a short book, but time turned it into a longer book. The information I obtained came in part from the JOC members but much from newspapers of the time, personal knowledge and Wikipedia. I also had talks with Mary Sayer, the daughter of the late Malcolm Sayer, a most prominent designer of several Jaguars, including the E type. I also had a very useful discussion with Sir John Egan who was the Chief Executive Officer of Jaguar Cars and was the man who saved Jaguar from disappearing from the Automotive Industry. Having a morning with Sir John in his house in Warwick was extremely enlightening. The book is now finished, proof read, and now at the printers. It also has a new title "Jaguar -- the Cars and the People." If you want more information about the book it is to be found at --- Transporterama.co.uk -- the online bookseller. The book consists of the history of Jaguar Cars from Swallow Sidecars until 2007 when TATA took over Jaguar [That may be another book]. I think the book is a good read [I would say that, wouldn't I?] It covers the cars that Jaguar build plus the people who made them. Regards, Peter.

Yes they will be, I can only see them increasing in value. I was thinking they could be worth between £1000-£5000 today. It's hard to say, considering there was only approx 275 cars produced worldwide! I may keep them as an investment, not sure really but hoped someone may be looking for replacements or for a 2nd set or an investment for themselves.
