Shimmering like a movie star and "a very British affair": for 99 years, Jaguar has been synonymous with elegance and luxury in automobile culture - high time to commemorate an exquisite car brand. Right on time for the 60th anniversary of the E-Type, this new Jaguar photo book from automobile photographer René Staud captures iconic Jaguar designs: the E-Type or XK 140, the SS90 from the 1930s, or Jaguar's first electric car - the I-Pace.

The man who elevated automobile photography to art, Staud stages these luxurious sports cars and racing icons in 250 photos, supplemented by texts from Jürgen Lewandowski. A beautiful ride through the complete Jaguar collection, with highlights from racing history, celebrity owners, and legendary Jaguar film appearances - James Bond, Kill Bill, and more.
