VISION
THERE’S NO PLACE LIKE HOME
E-TYPE COMMEMORATIVE
TWO EXCLUSIVE CREATIONS, EMBODYING JEWEL AND MACHINE
A JAGUAR LIKE NO OTHER
2,000 HOURS OF CRAFT
Fifty years since the last production Jaguar E-type, Jaguar Classic created E-type Commemorative: two rarefied vehicles for one discerning client. A celebration of the style and sophistication of the original with new, precious details.
Adorned with bespoke finishes by renowned jewellers Deakin & Francis, each of the vehicles features mother of pearl, hallmarked solid silver and 18ct gold badging. Inspired by the original 1974 colour palette, we crafted one vehicle in Signet Green and one in Opal Black.

SHADES OF ORIGINS
Informed by the Mid Grey exterior of the 1965 original, Islay Edition is finished in Heritage Grey with contrast roof and heavy-duty steel wheels in Limestone.
Complementing the iconic grille and heritage Land Rover badging, a bespoke side graphic reads ‘GXC 639C’. This is the registration of Spencer Wilks’ Series IIa.
EVERY STITCH A STORY
As an elegant gesture to the land that inspired its name, Islay Edition’s seats, door cards, central armrest and sun visor all feature a tactile tweed crafted by the Islay Woollen Mill.
Its earthy palette is a harmony of blue for the sea and the sky, purple for the local heather, and a subtle yellow for the peaty grasslands.
THE WORDS THAT CHANGED THE WORLD
Reminders of Land Rover’s legacy are judiciously placed around the Islay Edition’s cabin. This includes a plaque adjacent to the gearshift that tells the story of how the Land Rover name was born.
DISTILLED DETAILS
Reinforcing the link back to Islay Edition’s Hebridean heritage, the removable console tray – complete with leather tabs – features the oak of whisky barrels sourced from the local Kilchoman Distillery. Spencer Wilks’ granddaughter Kathy Wills established the distillery with her husband, Anthony, in 2005.
Within each tray, a unique wooden disc replicating the end of a whisky barrel showcases the vehicle as one of 30 limited edition examples marking 75 years of Land Rover.
