Building the perfect E-type | Goodwood Masters

Taking a car that Enzo Ferrari named as the most beautiful in the world and evolving it for the modern age is a bold move but one that Eagle has been pulling off with aplomb for some time now. As the company points out, more years have now passed since the first Eagle E-type was created than when that car first came off the production line and it is still in frequent use. What's more, that customer became the company's chairman and there can't be many more ringing endorsements.
In the third part of our series of Goodwood Masters presented by Motul, looking at the people and firms behind some of the classic car industry's greatest machines, we visited Eagle at its premises in Sussex to ask them about their pursuit of perfection and why the E-type is, in their opinion, the ultimate starting point for what the term 'restomod' simply does not do justice.
Would you buy an Eagle over an original?

How can you improve on perfection?

@scottlittlewood4527 2 жыл бұрын

I think the e type looks perfect. They do not necessarily drive as perfectly as they look.

These men and their staff are 100% genuine and fastidious in nature, a real rooted company to be involved with. Much love to all at eagle, who together make it what is!!

Probably the most beautiful “new” car on sale today.

I love the work that Eagle does. It is so nice to see craftsman at work and the final product being such an almost perfect example of E-type.

I've been into cars going on 50 years & have become rather jaded where the modern super car does nothing for me. The Eagle E type's, simply magical, I couldn't imagine anything more desirable. All the best guys, you're true gems to the automotive community!

Scott, you've hit that nail precisely on the head! We're about the same age, and my "Option List" is very short. Three pedals, 5 or 6 manual gears, manual or hydraulic power steering. That's the Eagle, simple focused perfection.

These Eagles are LOVELY cars, but I wonder how often they'll ever be driven. I've got an A35, which I've restored as a 1950s racer: Rorty exhaust, tuned engine, stripped interior etc. It's my daily driver. Every trip to the supermarket is like a (slow motion) blast down the Mulsanne straight. Thankyou for keeping older cars alive and for creating exquisite E-Types, but cheaper cars have merit too.

Gorgeous work! It would be so nice that at some point they could do not only the full restoration, because that limits the consumer to those very wealthy.

Lovely work, gotta wonder what a modern equivalent would go like, built around something like the Ford Barra inline six.

It looks like he’s just test driven a Speedster on a windy day. Self inflicted wound, of course, as he cut down the A pillar for the aesthetic!

I’d keep the bumpers and some of the details, rather than going fully smooth a-la first one. Very nice though.

@craigpennington1251 2 жыл бұрын

This car is the best of the best but the cost prohibits ownership. Insanely expensive. I've always wanted an E type but things kept me from it. This is the PERFECT E TYPE but again cost prevents it. Not to mention insurance costs and taxes on it yearly.
