They were made in limited numbers for competition in the early fifties and the number plate is mid-sixties. Originals are worth a fortune - they won Le Mans twice - and you tend not to find them left tying around in the street.
C Type Replica, registered as a 1965 car, built on a Heritage aluminum space frame chassis, with Jaguar 4.2L engine, and triple SU carburetors. Finished in Dark Royal Blue with roundels, the car also boasts competition exhaust system, electronic ignition, as well as 4 point harness, and electrical cut out switch. In very good overall condition and having only covered 3400 miles since rebuild, this car is truly stunning. Sold for £42,000

The Longleat in the background photo is quite appropriate given the price tag for the car.
I spotted a cheaper alternative this afternoon in town - sporting a "scrappage scheme survivor" badge
