It's David Wenman in his 1952 Jaguar C-Type which is 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. Peter Walker and Peter Whitehead won the 1951 Le Mans 24 Hour Race in a Jaguar C-Type, and Duncan Hamilton and Tony Rolt repeated that feat in 1953.
