Building the biggest classic car collection on Etsy
Called the most famous car in the world, the DB5 made its debut in the 1964 James Bond film Goldfinger.
The oldest E Type Jaguar in existence, licence plate 9600 HP. The car was driven over night from Britain to Geneva for its launch at the 1961 Motor Show, arriving with minutes to spare. 9600 HP caused such a stir a second E Type was sent for, 1 VHP, which was also driven flat out across Europe to take its place at the show.
On its release in 1961, Enzo Ferrari called it ‘the most beautiful car ever made’. Enough said.
Between 1952 and 1972 Austin and Donald Healey Motors produced a series of sports cars, which have become highly collectible. After Donald Healey’s death in 1988 The Times observed: ‘The big Healey’s brutally firm ride, heavy steering and engine so close it would roast a driver’s feet never detracted from the superb, timeless styling and classic proportions.’ Don’t make ’em like that anymore.
