Jaguar Classic has announced that the hotly-anticipated continuation Jaguar XKSS will receive its world debut presentation in November this year in California.
Production will be limited to just nine examples, hand-crafted by Jaguar Classic expert technicians and manufactured to the exact same specification as those produced in 1957. Often referred to as the world’s first supercar, Jaguar originally made the XKSS as a road-going version of the Le Mans winning D-type. Cars built in ’57 were originally earmarked for export to the US but disaster struck and a number were lost to the Browns Lane fire of the same year. Now, 59 years later, Jaguar will build the nine ‘lost’ XKSS sports cars for a select group of established collectors and customers. All nine continuation XKSS are now sold, with first deliveries to customers planned for early 2017.
