Jaguar Cars LTD made the best one. In scale, probably AutoArt.

All joking aside.............

It is a bit of a trick question as there were a number of iterations of the XKE.

That said, The Mark I by Autoart is my favorite - even though the tires that come with it were too small

I did lower mine a bit to make the wheel/tire size a bit less noticeable.

definitely AutoArt. They made the Series I in Roadster & Coupe forms (still need to buy one) & the Series III Roadster. The SI cars are much better detailed (& more expensive).

My SIII...

Right you are............

A natural error for a Ford GT40 guy.

Actually it didn't have any designation when it first came out. It didn't become the series one until they decided to make the series two.

In any case it is a very nice model - roadster or coupe
