Is the Aristocat a replica kit car, and
if so, what is it a replica of? |
The Aristocat Sports is not a
replica of any specific Jaguar XK model, but evokes the spirit of the XK120,
XK140 and XK150 models of the 1950's. It has XK120/140 wing profile, but is
more akin to the XK150 with the extra width from the front being only half
an inch per side wider. The more up to
date spaceframe chassis is different to the original car`s ladder frame.
The Aristocat FH Coupe is a dimensionally
exact replica of the XK120 / 140.
