The Tale of the Lost Jaguar…. Found at Marin Luxury Cars!!! by Simon Elliot

The tale of Jaguar SS100, ERB 290, once owned by my Father continues… My Father was a great car enthusiast and growing up as a child, our home in The Lake District, United Kingdom was adorned with photographs of the cars that he had owned in the past and his most beloved: ERB 290.

On a recent visit to Marin Luxury Cars in Corte Madera, California, I had a double take as there was not only a picture of a SS100 but it was the very same license plate as my Fathers favorite car! My Father, Walter Beattie Elliot purchased the car from a Farmer some time after World War II and had many years of fun traversing Europe in what was the Super Car of the Day.

Here are some of those photographs I grew up with.
