Type Jaguar is a replica of the famous Jaguar D-Type, a racing car that was known for its success in endurance events like the Le Mans 24-hour race in the 1950s.

The die-cast body is often painted in metallic colors such as silver, green, or blue, with a streamlined shape and details like a low nose and pronounced rear fin.
