Hot News: Jaguar C-Type


We've been chasing reports of a new Jaguar roadster for the better part of a decade, and though the name and specifications continue to change, reports of the car's production are unceasing. Now that it's apparently reviving the old C-Type name, more details are being reported as the car inches towards its rumored 2011 debut.

Originally known as the F-Type Concept, the car more recently took on the rumored name "XE," following Jaguar's current naming convention. Auto Express now reports that the car will instead be called the C-Type, reviving the moniker once used on racing XK120s back in the early 1950s. It's fitting, given the rumors that the C-Type will be built on a shortened XK platform.
