The 73rd Goodwood Member's Meeting starts on the 21st of March, and the teams are already busy testing their cars before all hell breaks loose on the very fast Goodwood Circuit.

There's only one Jaguar E-Type Low Drag Coupé from 1962. It wears the plates '49 FXN' and is a regular contender at the Goodwood Revival. The car you see here is an exact replica of 49 FXN built by Valley Motorsport in North Wales.

The original is a prototype, this is a prototype, and if Jaguar is allowed to build new Lightweight E-Types, so should others as long as the resulting vehicle is as perfect as this Low Drag.
