E-Type Galore at Sandown Park in September

The big Jaguar celebrations aren’t done yet, as the E-type will arrive on mass at the Sandown Park Race course on Saturday September 3rd  this year, when Classic Motor Cars of Bridgnorth and Barry Potter Fairs celebrate the 50th anniversary of the E-type Jaguar. The event will also see Norman Dewis, who originally tested the famous marque, on hand to sign autographs and talk to fans.

In addition the famous car auctioneers Bonhams will be on hand to value not only E-types but also any Jaguars that turn up on the day. Owners are asked to contact Bonhams beforehand, to book an appointment time if they wish their car to be valued.

"This should be a fantastic day out for E-type and Jaguar enthusiasts whether they collect the real thing or their toy counterparts. Thanks to Peter Neumark and Classic Motor Cars several very famous Jaguar E-types will be on display at Sandown Park,” said Barry Potter, who has been running his famous fairs at Sandown Park for the last  24 years.

“We will have experts on hand to give advice about restoring and maintaining Jaguars but there will be many other Jaguar activities. We want all Jaguar E-type owners to take part in the Concours d'Elegance. Cars do not have to be pristine, it will be a fun event and there will be a variety of classes and prizes,” said Peter Neumark from Classic Motor Cars.

The famous Lindner Nocker  lightweight will also be on sight, a one and only factory Low Drag lightweight E-type which  been put back together after 7,000 hours of restoration.
