E-type Cresta


What is your favourite car of all time?


Vauxhall E-type Cresta 1954, 1955, 1956, 1957


The completely new E-type Wyverns and Veloxes with curved instead of flat windscreens and coil and wishbone independent front suspension appeared in 1951, but used the old L-type engines until spring 1952, when both were given more powerful 79.4 x 76.2mm engines. Minor styling changes were made to the E-types from 1954, when the fronts were altered, first with a grille of "waterfall" chrome strip covering the opening and then from 1956 this horizontal bar grille with the big V motif. From 1955 the Cresta had become the top model, priced at £855.
