2013 Jaguar C-Type by Realm For Sale

Following the relative success of the Jaguar XK120s at the 1950 Le Mans 24hr race, it was realised that with minimal engine tuning, a lighter chassis and a lightweight aerodynamically revised aluminium bodyshell, the car would have a very real chance of success against its infamous opposition and thus the XK120C or C-type was born. Whilst the front suspension was very similar to that of the XK120, the rear was completely redesigned and the braking was ultimately improved via the innovative four disc brake arrangement, and the exhaust valves were enlarged. These modifications along with many more resulted in a power output of a little over 200bhp.

The C-types were completed in time to compete in the 1951 Le Mans 24hr. At one point in the race the Jaguars held first, second and third place and it was only mechanical teething issues that prevented that from being the final result. With such an iconic marque as the Jaguar C-type it was inevitable that companies would seek to produce recreations. One of these companies was Realm Engineering Ltd. They already had a strong following having developed the RAM Cobra the only replica Cobra to be endorsed by Carroll Shelby himself. Realm went on to produce a very accurate and high quality Jaguar C-type recreation.

The Jaguar C-type by Realm Engineering offered at Autostorico is a recreation of an early 1950s car. The build was completed in 2013, when it went through its “DVLA - Individual Vehicle Approval”. Subsequently the car has been issued with a date related number plate. Finished in Dark racing green with old English white hand painted roundels and green leather interior.

Having covered a mere 833 miles this stunning example has been built to the highest possible standard around a fully bracketed tubular steel space frame, similar to the original car with floor and bulkhead panels riveted together. The GRP bodywork houses a Le Mans style fuel filler. The windscreens fitted offer a full wrap around Perspex screen with Mille Miglia cut outs and twin Brooklands “Aero” type screens behind. Powered by a 4. 2 litre straight six engine, which on a recent trip to HiTech Motorsport produced over 200 bhp and 255 Ib/ ft of torque on their rolling road. Carburation is supplied by triple Webers. A five speed gearbox is fitted with a power lock rear differential. All suspension components and wheel hubs were supplied by Ward Engineering and braking comes from 4 pot calliper ventilated discs with servo assistance and Green Stuff brake pads. The wheels are 16” wires with knock on Jaguar race spinners. The car is supplied with full tonneau cover and full set of period Smith instruments, Willans harnesses, Moto-lita steering wheel, grab handle, battery isolator, Kenlowe fan and leather bonnet straps.

Supplied with a comprehensive file of invoices and bills including a current V5 registration document, MOT certificate until August 2018 with no advisories and other related paperwork.

This car represents a fantastic opportunity to own a stunning example of a true racing legend, which will certainly appreciate over time.
