Does anyone know which company performs these “nip tuck” surgeries to the E-type???

In the vid where James May tests the old XJS he says the company responsible for the mods is called Knowles Wilkins but it seems they’re not into E-types…

Must not go to many classic car shows. I am all for using modern mechanics as long as it looks like it belongs. Instead of webers on my porsche I have TWM fuel injection. Looks just like webers but works so much better. I also use a modern transmission. I can do without a classic transmission. But it depends on the car. If I don’t care about it keeping up with modern cars then I would love to have it as original.

Thats if you are looking at Aston Martins that are in mint condition and E-types that are fixer uppers. A series 1 E-type like he is drving in this video is just about $100k here in the US. Later models are not worth as much but if you get an E-type you want the series 1 4.2. The DB5 is really not my cup of tea. Not nearly as sexy as the jag is.

Who cares about the age because the cars are beautiful.

Well lets see… A human of the 21st wont be satisfied with a car just because it’s a classic. A man might but if only he/she wants it as a display. If you want to have a classic car that would be drivable and survive today’s world we really should make a few adjustments but not too much that it will ruin the car. It’s like how the new rolls royce phantom looks old school yet it’s as modern as a cell phone.

Just like that Jaguar in this video with modern brakes, suspension, tires, etc.
