And just to get us all in the mood, in 2010 the Jaguar Enthusiast’s Club and Aston Martin Owners Club have pencilled in an FIA E-Type versus Aston Martin DB4 race at Oulton Park on September 18^th. This will be a 20-minute practice and 30-minute race.

50 years of the glorious E-Type .. is it your ultimate historic sports car?  It’s definitely near the top of our list!  We are so excited about these events; we can’t wait to join in the celebrations and hope to ensure as many people as possible get to take part!

If you are looking to take part in any of these events you still have time to have the ultimate machine built, or have your own thoroughbred prepared.  Contact Jim Tester for further information.
