British Sports Cars (210)We examine the British Sports car — the two most famous marques, Jaguar and Aston Martin, are our focus on this episode of
A CARography. We'll receive an overview of British sports cars and explain what makes them "especially British." Segment two tells the story of the birth of the Jaguar company and its early releases, specifically the XK series — their first true sports cars. The episode ends with a look at the Jaguar's first racing champion, the C-Type. We complete the Jaguar story by examining their greatest racer, the D-Type and it's road-going successor, the E-Type. All significant models are examined as is their owner/protector/father figure, David Brown.
