Jaguar Heritage Driving Experience launched

Jaguar Land Rover Special Operations has announced the launch of the Jaguar Heritage Driving Experience. This range of exciting driving experiences gives participants the unique opportunity to take the wheel of cars including Le Mans-racing legend Jaguar D-Type, legendary E-Type and Jaguar's most potent sports car ever, the F-TYPE R Coupe.

Details of the new Jaguar Heritage Driving Experience may be reviewed at: www.jaguarheritagedriving.com. From November 2014, the Jaguar Heritage Driving Experience opens at an established 200-acre testing facility, Fen End, in Warwickshire, where visitors will be offered the chance to drive some of these icons of Jaguar's rich product history.

Many of the vehicles in the collection will be driven by members of the public for the very first time, having been prepared for high-octane test action following Jaguar's recent purchase of over 500 outstanding British heritage cars from a private collector.

Jaguar Land Rover Special Operations Managing Director, John Edwards, said, "This is the first experiential offering from our new division and is the first time in Jaguar's history that we have made a collection of vehicles of this calibre available for 'arrive and drive' experiences. It's an extremely exciting new project that underscores the very essence of what Special Operations is all about - celebrating heritage with our eyes firmly on the future."

The collection includes many iconic Jaguars, charting over 100 years of beautiful, fast cars from pre and post-war road racers and Le Mans champions, to later sporting saloons and grand tourers. A variety of drive packages will be available, allowing visitors to experience a particular era or to journey through Jaguar's history right up to present day heroes such as the F-TYPE R Coupe.
