It will join its E-type predecessor in the official Jaguar Heritage collection and take part in a series of special events and activities this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Both F-TYPE and E-type marked the end of their production on almost the same day and on the threshold of a new and exciting era. Just as the last E-type in 1974 heralded the birth of the radical Jaguar XJ-S, the final F-TYPE has been produced as Jaguar readies an even bolder transformation \u2013 spearheaded by a four-door electric GT that promises to be a copy of nothing when it is revealed in 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">F-TYPE was first launched as a convertible in 2013 and was Jaguar\u2019s first two-seat sports car in almost 40 years. It received universal acclaim and was named 2013 World Car Design of the Year. The coup\u00e9 made its debut the following year.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">87,731 F-TYPEs have been produced and it will continue to be available until early 2025. JDHT records show that Jaguar produced 72,528 E-types, ending with a special run of 50 cars. All but one was painted black, while the second-to-last car was British Racing Green and was supplied to a private Jaguar collector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Both cars will reside in the JDHT at Gaydon alongside the last series XE, XF, and XF Sportbrake which also finished manufacture recently.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"aes-custom-banner\">\n<!-- START ADVERTISER: from tradedoubler.com -->\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\nvar uri = 'https:\/\/imp.tradedoubler.com\/imp?type(img)g(25614546)a(2367411)' + new String (Math.random()).substring (2, 11);\ndocument.write('<a href=\"https:\/\/clk.tradedoubler.com\/click?p=356394&#038;a=2367411&#038;g=25614546\" target=\"_blank\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"'+uri+'\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" border=\"0\"><\/a>');\n<\/script>\n<!-- END ADVERTISER: from tradedoubler.com -->\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The&nbsp;final Jaguar F-TYPE sports car made at the brand\u2019s manufacturing facility in Castle Bromwich will join the Jaguar Heritage collection \u2013 50 years to the day since the last Jaguar E-type drove off the production line.
