To carry on the Jaguar success the D-type was born, one of the ultimate race cars of its era. The low drag co-efficient design and lightweight aluminum hand rolled body shells made this car a racer to be reckoned with. Going from strength to strength with a variety of designs such as the long nose, short nose, single screen and the appendix C wide screen, the D-type won Le Mans in 1955, 1956 and 1957, partly by privateers, when Jaguar pulled out of racing in 1956.
