E-Type Stereo Upgrade: The most beautiful car in the world is now smarter than ever.
Bringing modern connectivity to the "most beautiful car ever made" requires extreme reverence, our newly established collaboration with Eagle may just breathe a new air to the all time classic.
We are proud to have established a collaboration with Eagle, globally recognised as the creators of the world's finest bespoke E-Types, to bring modern technology to the E-Type. To date, Reluxe has proudly supplied custom-tailored audio solutions to several unique Eagle E-Type builds, ensuring that the cabin's legendary aesthetic remains entirely uncompromised while delivering modern, high-fidelity acoustic performance. The Jaguar E-Type is widely regarded as one of the most beautiful automobiles ever created. Inside the cockpit, every line—from the toggle-switch central binnacle to the delicate chrome-ringed Smiths gauges—was crafted to evoke timeless British elegance. However, enjoying a classic E-Type on modern roads presents some challenges. Outdated factory radios or aftermarket modern head units disrupt the period-correct visual harmony of the dashboard, while offering poor acoustic output, lack of modern navigation, and unreliable connectivity.The Reluxe Stereo resolves this compromise entirely. Tailored specifically for the refined classic driver, it introduces essential modern infotainment while ensuring your E-Type’s interior remains 100% authentic and show-readyBest of two world, best classic GT with smartest stereo
