E-type vs Corvette

Classic & Sports Car – E-type vs Corvette: inside the May 2020 issue of C&SC

Jaguar E-type vs Chevrolet Corvette is an age-old contest – and one our Greg MacLeman was only too happy to reignite in sun-kissed California for this month’s evocative cover.

The battle of American V8 muscle against thoroughbred British ‘six’ was played out on dealer forecourts and away from the lights in period, and it’s as hard-fought and passionate a tussle as ever, as our two owners share from page 90 of our May 2020 magazine.

Half-century heroes

Classic & Sports Car – E-type vs Corvette: inside the May 2020 issue of C&SC

Join us from page 136 as we celebrate 50 years of the brilliant Citroën GS.

Plugging the hole in the middle of its range between the high-tech DS and basic 2CV, this mid-sized marvel was Citroën’s saviour – and its timeless design still has legions of fans.

Fast and furious

Check out this tasty trio! It’s Toyota Supra vs Mitsubishi 3000GT vs Nissan 300ZX in our latest issue – and they’re the perfect pops of colour to brighten our day.

These three blended practicality, performance and tough mechanicals to be the darlings of the tuner scene in their prime, and still thrill today.

Mighty Monza

It’s a pre-war Alfa, so of course it’s our man Mick Walsh behind the wheel – and what a stunner it is.

This privateer 8C Monza took the fight to the factories and for a design that’s close to 90 years old, the performance is still remarkable. Join us aboard from page 100 of our brand-new issue.

You’ll get all this and so much more in the May 2020 edition of C&SC, plus all our regular content, including the latest classic car news, historic motorsport, auction updates and product reviews.

It’s out now! Buy a single issue here or subscribe here, or enjoy our digital edition, either bundled with the magazine and with our super offer here, on its own here, or on services such as Readly, Exact Editions and Zinio.
