    Jaguar D-Type

    This is 1 of 2 long nose D-Types in America. There are 7 left in existence and this is one of them!

    I never thought I would see a real one in my lifetime.

    This week and original Jaguar long-nose D-Type showed up at Cars and Coffee. 9 made – 7 still exist – two in the US – and this one is driven.

    There is another D type that shows up on a pretty regular basis. Is that one not original? Always an older gentleman and what looks like his daughter or someone riding shotgun. Does anyone know what I am talking about haha?

    This car definitely deserves car of the week regardless. Simply stunning.

    EDIT: It is the same car, the people in the first picture are who i was talking about. Incredible that they bring it out so awesome.

    Yes it is the same car – a little hard to take the “older gentleman” moniker…however I guess one point is I have lived long enough, and been lucky enough to have a “D” – it must be some compensation.

    haha, i have nothing but the utmost respect for ‘older’ men driving beautiful cars. and older is relative, at 20 i was just guessing that you are something like 30 or 35…..right… 🙂

    mmmmm…30 – 35, that SOUNDS about right. However a walk past the mirror usually jolts me back to reality.
