I was just thinking the same thing.

I see this beautiful car and am envious, and then I remember what happened to Richard Hammond's immaculate e-type on the Ultimate Road Trip Top Gear special (spoiler: it broke down.)

These cars (and engines) are not unreliable, certainly not any more than any other 1960's car. That this engine was used right up to the early '90s is testament to Jaguar getting the basic design right. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaguar_XK6_engine
