Designed by England's famous Sir William Lyons, the SS-100 is prized as the standard for functional sports car beauty, and stands as the classic forerunner of today's Jaguars. In four years of production, the SS-100 earned an exceptional reputation with winning performances in road races, endurance contests and rallies throughout England and Europe. The SS-100 was the first true 100-mph sports car available to the public and was beautifully proportioned, epitomizing power when viewed from any angle.
