- The Jaguar D-Type is a sports racing car that was produced by Jaguar Cars Ltd. between 1954 and 1957. Designed specifically to win the Le Mans 24-hour race, it shared thestraight-6XK engineand many mechanical components with its C-Type predecessor. Its structure, however, was radically different, with innovative monocoque construction and slippery aero dynamics that integrated aviation technology, including in some examples a distinctive vertical stabilizer.
- D-Types won Le Mans in 1955, 1956 and 1957. After Jaguar temporarily retired from racing as a factory team, the company offered the remaining unfinished D-Types as street-legal XKSS versions, whose perfunctory road-going equipment made them eligible for production sports car races in America.
- Genuine D-Types can fetch anywhere between USD$6-12m. In 2016, a 1955 Jaguar D-Type (XKD 501) that won Le Mans in 1956 sold at auction for $21.78 million USD making it the most expensive British car ever sold at the time.

Once the car is secured, we handle export documentation, pre-customs cleaning and freight from New Zealand to your local port. From there your own customs broker clears it and handles your country's compliance and registration.
