The Ultimate Jaguar Restomod, for the Connoisseur!

The Jaguar E-Type V12 Speedster by Retro Coachbuilders is a bespoke coachbuilt masterpiece that combines the timeless beauty of the Series 1 E-Type with the competition-bred spirit of the legendary D-Type racing car and exhilarating V12 power. Handcrafted in Italy and built exclusively to individual commission, each Speedster is a unique creation tailored to its owner's vision. Starting at just € 498,000.

Featuring entirely bespoke bodywork, the Speedster blends classic E-Type proportions with distinctive D-Type-inspired design elements, creating a dramatic and elegant silhouette that celebrates Jaguar's golden era of design and motorsport. Every body is hand-formed using traditional coachbuilding techniques, with an optional lightweight aluminum coachwork package available for clients seeking enhanced performance and authenticity.

At its heart lies Jaguar's iconic V12 engine, paired with a traditional 4, 5 or 6 speed manual gearbox for a pure and engaging driving experience. Available with a gated gearbox option as well. Clients may choose from several engine specifications, including the original 5.3-liter V12, the later 6.0-liter V12, or an optional high-performance 7.0-liter V12 upgrade. Performance exhaust systems, bespoke tuning, and modern reliability enhancements such as Brembo performance brakes can be specified to suit each owner's requirements.

For a more purposeful appearance, the optional Competition Package includes bumper delete bodywork, competition fuel filler, lightweight detailing, and period-inspired styling cues that evoke Jaguar's legendary racing machines.

Retro Coachbuilders also offers an exclusive Sports Racing Body specification inspired by the great endurance racers of the 1950s and 1960s. This package features a sculpted bonnet with hood scoop, classic side extraction vents, enlarged cooling openings, lightweight body panels, and additional competition-inspired details that capture the spirit of historic motorsport while maintaining grand touring refinement.

Inside, every Speedster is individually commissioned and handcrafted using the finest Italian materials. Clients can select from a virtually unlimited range of colors, leathers, stitching patterns, trim finishes, instrumentation, and bespoke details. From elegant touring interiors to competition-inspired cockpits, each cabin is tailored to reflect the personality and preferences of its owner.

No two examples are ever identical. Every Jaguar E-Type V12 Speedster is designed, engineered, and built as a one-off automobile, combining Jaguar heritage, Italian craftsmanship, modern engineering, and unparalleled exclusivity.

The result is the ultimate Jaguar restomod—a car that honors the past while delivering a bespoke driving experience for the modern enthusiast. A fusion of E-Type elegance, D-Type racing pedigree, V12 performance, and handcrafted luxury, the Jaguar E-Type V12 Speedster by Retro Coachbuilders is a celebration of individuality, craftsmanship, and timeless automotive design.
