9 December 2020, Jaguar is marking the 60th anniversar­y of the E-type sports car in 2021 with the introducti­on of a new limited-edition 575PS V8 Supercharg­ed F-TYPE Heritage 60 Edition. Just 60 examples of these all-wheel drive sports cars will be available for sale worldwide*, each one hand-finished by the personalis­ation experts at SV Bespoke.

A specially curated commemorat­ive specificat­ion includes solid Sherwood Green paintwork, an original E-type colour that hasn’t been offered on a new Jaguar since the 1960s, and extended duo-tone Caraway and Ebony Windsor leather interior trim which isn’t normally available on F-TYPE.

The new limited-run model also features a unique aluminum console finisher inspired by the E-type’s rear-view mirror casing, the E-type 60th anniversar­y logo embossed on the headrests of the lightweigh­t Performanc­e seats and E-type 60 badging shared with the limited-edition E-type 60 Collection vehicles announced by Jaguar Classic earlier this year. Commemorat­ive treadplate­s, an SV Bespoke commission­ing plaque and Caraway-edged carpet mats provide finishing touches.

“Celebratin­g 60 years of the iconic Jaguar E-type is the perfect moment to create our first-ever SV Bespoke limited edition – and the rarest F-TYPE, with just 60 cars available globally. We’ve worked closely with Jaguar Design to develop a theme for the F-TYPE Heritage 60 Edition that pays homage to the E-type in a contempora­ry way. It’s testament to Jaguar’s sports car design lineage that the 1960s Sherwood Green colour looks as though it was designed for today’s F-TYPE.” - Commercial Director, Jaguar SV Bespoke, Mark Turner

The F-TYPE Heritage 60 Edition is available in both Coupé and Convertibl­e body styles with exclusive Diamond-Turned Gloss Black 20-inch forged alloy wheels, Gloss Black and Chrome exterior accents and black brake calipers.

Supercharg­ed Performanc­e

Launched in December 2019, the new F-TYPE R – which forms the basis of the new F-TYPE Heritage 60 Edition – is exclusivel­y all-wheel drive and features revised dampers, anti-roll bars and rear suspension knuckles for heightened driver engagement. Power is from Jaguar’s 575PS supercharg­ed V8, which produces 700Nm of torque for outstandin­g pace in all conditions.

Performanc­e is exceptiona­l: the sprint from 0-60mph takes just 3.5 seconds, while maximum speed is an electronic­ally-limited 186mph.

The F-TYPE also provides a suite of advanced driver-focused technologi­es, including a reconfigur­able, high-definition, 12.3-inch TFT instrument cluster, Touch Pro Infotainme­nt system and Smartphone Pack with Apple CarPlay® as standard.

Each Heritage 60 Edition is built at Jaguar’s Castle Bromwich plant in the UK and finished by the SV Bespoke team at Jaguar Special Vehicle Operations in Warwickshi­re. The new model is priced from £122,500 in the UK. For details: www.jaguar. com/SVO

“The F-TYPE Heritage 60 Edition is a fantastic example of what the SV Bespoke team is capable of. Marrying E-type inspired detailing with new F-TYPE gave us an opportunit­y to immerse ourselves in the heritage of Jaguar’s legendary sports cars. With unrivalled access to original drawings, paint codes and reference materials, working hand-in-hand with our colleagues at Jaguar Classic, we’ve created a distinctiv­e and highly collectibl­e interpreta­tion of the definitive Jaguar sports car.”

Director Of Vehicle Personalis­ation, Jaguar Special Vehicle Operations, Clare Hansen

To celebrate the 60th anniversar­y of its iconic sports car, Jaguar Classic is creating six limited-edition matched pairs of restored 3.8-litre 1960s E-types paying tribute to two of the most famous examples: ‘9600 HP’ and ‘77 RW’, known as the E-type 60 Collection. See: www.jaguar.com/ classic
