5.0 out of 5 stars
Probably the Best,
By TR3 Enthusiast (Vancouver, BC, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Jaguar: Fifty Years of Speed and Style (Haynes Classic Makes) (Hardcover)
I have read many car books, but this one really succeeds at telling the story it wants, about all of the products of the Jaguar firm, not just the fancy ones. Good pictures, excellent product information, and even production numbers for most models.
Well done, with style.
