These cars took part in the Italy v Rest of the World Race for Pre 1959 Drum Brake Sports Cars at the Silverstone Historic Festival meeting in August 2001.
On the left is the 1952 Jaguar C-Type of David Wenman that was driven in the race by Tony Stephens. It's chassis XKC008 and has the 6-cylinder inline 3,442cc Jaguar XK6 engine that powered all the C-Types, and was originally owned by Leslie Johnson who drove it in the 1953 Mille Miglia but failed to finish the race. The car on the right is the 1954 Jaguar XK120 of George Holt, again with the 3,442cc XK6 engine.
