The Jaguar of today is rooted in the 50's, while the marque goes back well into the 20's. It was the 50's when it became a player on the world stage. Under pressure from the post-war British government, which was rationing steel production towards export industry, Jaguar decided to build a car for the world market.In 1959 a thorough upgrade of the Mark II saloon would see the Jaguar dominate touring car racing in the early 60's with first the Mark II 3.4, then 3.8 and finally the 4.2. The RAC, Alpine and Monte Carlo rallies all fell to Jags as well. By 1961 a new flag carrier was required and arguably the classic sports car of the 60's, the E-Type was released. The E-Type was a great success on the race track as well.
