He highlights the C‑Type’s pioneering use of disc brakes, noting how its dominance at Le Mans forced other manufacturers to adopt disc‑brake technology. The speaker reflects on Jaguar’s technological superiority and racing dominance in the 1950s, contrasting it with the brand’s later decline, and expresses amazement at the car’s historical significance within the automotive world.

We sold the most significant Jaguar on the planet, the Le Mans winning Jaguar C Type, the works car. This is the only surviving Le Mans winning works Jaguar. It was the pioneer of disc brakes. And because it smashed everyone at Le Mans, all the other manufacturers realized that actually, we need to start putting disc brakes in our cars. It's such a significant car in the automobile world, and when you look at the technology that Jaguar had in the 1950s and how dominant they were in racing compared to where they suddenly found themselves, I just can't believe it.
