About
Xclusively Jaguar
Xclusively Jaguar was founded by Letitia Mace in 2008 as a trusted place to collect and share accurate Jaguar information. What began with a newsletter and a home-built website has grown into a long-running resource for Jaguar enthusiasts, now run by Letitia and Rob Jenner.
OUR STORY
It started with a newsletter...
On 11 August 2008, Letitia sent out the very first Xclusively Jaguar newsletter. Determined to create a reliable home for accurate Jaguar information, she signed up for a web-design course and built the first Xclusively Jaguar website herself before the end of the year.
As Xclusively Jaguar grew, so did the website. Later versions became more sophisticated and were professionally developed, while Letitia remained responsible for the content, direction and character of Xclusively Jaguar.
In 2014, Rob Jenner joined Letitia, bringing another lifelong enthusiasm for interesting cars. Together they have built an eclectic collection of Jaguars and automobilia and become involved in just about anything Jaguar-related along the way.

THE PEOPLE BEHIND XCLUSIVELY JAGUAR
A shared passion
For Letitia and Rob, Jaguar isn't simply the subject of a website. Their shared collection of Jaguar cars, parts and automobilia means there's usually a restoration, research project, event or interesting discovery happening somewhere.
They regularly attend and organise enthusiast events, meet owners and specialists, and contribute stories from the Jaguar world to Xclusively Jaguar News and the wider motoring media.
You’ll often find Letitia and Rob at Jaguar shows and events around the country — although, judging by the photographic evidence, their definition of “sharing the workload” may be open to interpretation.
A SHARED OBSESSION
Our collection
Over the years, Letitia and Rob have assembled an interesting collection of Jaguar cars and automobilia — some pristine, some projects, and probably always with room for one more.
