Nostalgia

Nostalgia Cars was a British replica-car manufacturer known for Jaguar-based recreations. Incorporated in 1999 and based near Taunton, Somerset, the firm offered factory-built or component versions of the XK120 (Classic 120 roadster and Prestige 120 coupé), the XK140 (Classic 140), and later a Jaguar C-type–style model introduced in 2003. The cars typically used Jaguar running gear—most commonly XK/XJ sixes and related suspension and transmissions—on proprietary chassis with GRP or aluminium bodywork; a Mini-based NC1000 coupé inspired by the Ogle SX1000 was also advertised. Period literature quoted kit and turnkey pricing and noted small-series output, with five complete cars and fifteen kits reported for 2003. Public activity decreased in the late 2010s; Nostalgia Cars was dissolved in March 2022.
