Buying a 1964 Jaguar XKE Fixed Head Coupe

The 1964 Jaguar XKE Fixed Head Coupe and Open Two Seater models were the last of the series to offer the well known Jaguar 3.8L straight six engine before displacement would be increased to 4.2L for the 1965 model-year. Still part of the Series I models, the 1964 Jaguar XKE combined speed with style and brought Jaguar’s racing experience to the street. Boasting independent suspension and disc brakes all around, the classic Jaguar XKE was also quite advanced for its day, as disc brakes were an innovation at the time. As beautiful and impressive as it was in the 1960s, the Jaguar XKE Fixed Head Coupe, characterized by its fastback coupe roof, is still considered one of the most beautiful cars of all time.
