From the rear cover blurb:

“‘Jaguar: All the Cars,’ aims to meet the needs of not only the Jaguar aficionado but also those enthusiasts who don’t have detailed knowledge of the myriad Jaguar models produced over the years.

“Starting with the post-war period, this extensively illustrated reference book opens with the XK120. The development of all subsequent Jaguar production cars is charted, as well as those models designed and produced under the Daimler name from 1960.

“A brief history of each model range is provided with a detailed guide on how to tell the interior and exterior differences between the many models produced.

“Appendices for each model range give production figures, a brief resume of production changes during the life of each model, technical specifications, accessories available and even full details of both interior and exterior colour schemes.

“Researched and written by renowned Jaguar historian Nigel Thorley, who has owned in the region of 60 Jaguars himself, here is the most comprehensive quick reference work to date on Jaguar production cars from 1948 through to the very latest X-350 XJ6 and XJ8 saloons.”

The book is in fine, collectible condition, with no torn or bent pages, no scratches, stains or inscriptions, no remainder marks, no price-clipping, no bookplate, no ex-library, no book club edition, no flaws of any sort. It is as new.
