Book Description

May 1998
Glory in a decade's worth of two of Britain's best automobiles: the Jaguar and the Daimler. Every variant produced from 1960 to 1970 gets coverage, along with technical detail, history, and social commentary. A gallery of previously unpublished photos (at least one of every model) captures these sleek machines and focuses on design details. Pore over a production and performance review, listing transmission, engine type, speed, and number manufactured. Whether it's the sexy Jaguar E or the luxurious Daimler DR 450 limousine, you'll covet these cars!

Editorial Reviews

From Booklist

Two of the most distinguished automotive marques are celebrated by a renowned authority. Hughes concentrates here on the 1960s, when both Jaguars and Daimlers were at their prime in sophisticated style. "Today, the classic Jaguar and Daimler designs of the 1960s are still highly revered," Hughes posits, "and surviving examples attract an enthusiastic following worldwide." With that in mind, he profiles each model of that decade in cogent text, large format, and appealing color photographs. For all car lovers, drivers of Jaguars and Daimlers or not. Brad Hooper
