The Glenturret X Jaguar C-Type

In 1953, the Jaguar C-Type cemented its place in motorsport history by dominating the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The car that introduced disc brakes to the world, finished 1st, 2nd, 4th and 9th and set a new average speed record of 105.84mph, the first time a 100mph average had ever been broken, thanks to its 220bhp engine with triple Weber carburettors and aerodynamic lightweight body.
