Bonhams are to auction this very rare 1960 Jaguar E2A. Estimated worth seven $million.

Driven by no fewer than four of the world’s greatest racing drivers (Sir Jack Brabham, Bruce McLaren, Dan Gurney and Walt Hansgen), ‘E2A’ is, says Bonhams, ‘presented in wonderfully original and unspoiled ex-works condition, preserved in just one family ownership for over 40 years’. So it is, in effect, a one-owner car ex-works.
