One of the tailfinned versions of these, driven by Norman Dewison, who was also Jaguar's test driver, did 192 miles per hour down the Mulsanne Straight in 1955!!!! During that year's 24 hour race. Didn't complete the race though; it failed when Dewison's co-driver was racing. Last I heard, Norman is still alive at age 97 and still being an ambassador for Jaguar. The D is one of the coolest, hottest, sexiest cars there has ever been.
