hi, i'm looking for and hope someone knows if one was ever made, i need a 1/24 or 1/25 scale jaguar xke or the jag town car with the independent rear suspension. thanks, lary

Aurora made a 1/24 XK-E back on the dark ages, although its a pretty nice piece with a complete Salisbury IRS rear end. It's been repopped by Monogram (and, IIRC, Revell of Germany)
I have a spare (moldy old Monogram bag kit) if you're interested. Contact me off-board pschen-at-msn-dot-com.

Tamiya has a 3.8Litre Saloon in its lineup, but I really don't know how the rear-end is molded.

Phil, i emailed but it bounced, i am interested in your kit. lary

The low tech version is only a curbside with less detail I have built it and it is not too bad. It has a very nice interior.

Scott, thanks never knew about this kit. lary

It's an early convertible.

I think it was a Revell kit. I would think that it was the most recent release so probably the easiest to find.

sumus quod sumus

I have the Monogram repop of the Aurora mold.
Pretty darn nice for an old kit. I think the Shaguar is the same kit.

Airfix also did the coupe, in at least two versions, street and the 196 Cunningham LeMans car. I have that one and it hold up well against the Revell and Aurora kits although the "Dunlop" wheels and tires are terrible.
