Ultimate return to full staff on the American manifestation of Pebble Beach with the outcome of the bid for the Jaguar C-Type from 1952. As the title indicates that the ticket fine was eventually acquired for a final amount of $ 2.5 million or approximately 1.75 million euros.



Not much to report again in this little note that the amount signed by the anonymous buyer to afford the historic Jag. Let’s say that the Jaguar C-Type was brought to the auction (and thus behavior) by Derek Hill.
Why Derek Hill? The answer is here and the rest as some additional information on the Jaguar C-Type.

Again this year the U.S. event at Pebble Beach rhymes with exceptional presentation, can think in the long-awaited successor to the Bentley Arnage, and historic bid for the image example of this Bugatti Type 57C Coupe of Ettore Bugatti. Amid the stalls, visitors and wealthy collectors will also compete to afford a Jaguar C Type 1952 driven at the time by a certain Phil Hill.

This very rare Jaguar C-Type 1952 (XKC-007), one of 53 copies produced and one of the first issued in the U.S. territory, therefore, was particularly driven by Phil Hill. The model imposed itself on numerous occasions at various U.S. competitions.
Over the years and decades it passed into the hands of several owners and was completely restored in 1986. It will be submitted for auction at Pebble Beach without a reserve price has not been sent.
