Electric Power Steering for Classic Jaguar : The Complete Guide

Owning a classic Jaguar means keeping a living connection with the history of British motoring. But driving a vintage Jaguar in the city or on long tours can quickly become physically demanding: without power steering, the effort required is considerable, especially at low speed or when manoeuvring into a parking space.

That is precisely why madirectionassistee.com offers a full range of adaptable electric power steering kits for classic Jaguar, developed model by model to combine modern comfort with preserved authenticity.

Why fit electric power steering to your vintage Jaguar?

Classic Jaguars were built at a time when unassisted steering was the norm. Today's driving conditions have changed, and an electric power steering kit allows you to:

  • Significantly reduce steering effort at low speed
  • Make parking and manoeuvring effortless
  • Retain all the original driving feel
  • Enjoy a reversible installation in 90% of cases
  • Eliminate hydraulic pump, belt and hoses
  • Draw only 5 to 7 amps at full lock
  • Lose no engine power whatsoever
  • Benefit from completely silent operation

Unlike a hydraulic system, the kit is fitted entirely inside the cabin, beneath the steering wheel. The engine bay remains untouched, and all controls return to their original position.

Our electric power steering kits for Jaguar : available models

Each kit is developed specifically for one Jaguar model. The loads on the steering system are precisely calculated to match the electric motor output to each vehicle.

Electric Power Steering Jaguar XK140

The Jaguar XK140 (1954–1957) is an iconic roadster whose unassisted steering can feel heavy. Our EZ Power Steering kit integrates discreetly into the steering column and restores remarkable lightness to the wheel, with no visible modification from the outside.

Electric Power Steering Jaguar XK150

The successor to the XK140, the Jaguar XK150 (1957–1961) benefits from a bespoke kit that respects the architecture of its original column. Fitting is fully reversible, with no cutting or welding required.

Electric Power Steering Jaguar MK1

The Jaguar MK1, a sporting saloon of the 1950s, regains modern manoeuvrability thanks to our specifically adapted kit. An ideal solution for owners who use their MK1 regularly on a daily basis.

Electric Power Steering Jaguar MK2

The Jaguar MK2 is one of the most actively driven classic saloons. Our kit gives it a new lease of life with a natural, progressive assistance that fully respects the sporting character of this iconic model.

Electric Power Steering Jaguar MK2 Automatic

For the automatic versions of the MK2, a dedicated kit has been developed to account for the specific transmission configuration and ensure a perfect, long-lasting integration.

Electric Power Steering Jaguar E-Type S1 / S2

The Jaguar E-Type is one of the most admired cars in motoring history. Our EZ Power Steering kit for the E-Type S1 and S2 has been designed to remain completely invisible while providing invaluable assistance during low-speed manoeuvres.

Electric Power Steering Jaguar S-Type

The classic Jaguar S-Type also has its own dedicated kit, ensuring optimal compatibility and performance for this distinctively styled model.

How does the EZ Power Steering kit work?

Our kits are built on EZ Power Steering technology, a world reference in adaptable electric power steering for classic vehicles, CE approved and TÜV certified.

A compact electric motor is fitted directly onto the steering column, inside the cabin, beneath the steering wheel. It provides real-time, graduated assistance via a potentiometer or load sensor, adjusting the effort automatically to suit driving conditions.

A complete kit includes:

  • The electric assistance motor
  • The electronic control unit
  • The wiring harness
  • Model-specific brackets and fixings
  • A detailed fitting guide

Reversibility: in 90% of cases, the original column is not cut or welded. For the remaining 10%, your original column is sent to our workshop, modified, and returned ready to fit.

Adjustable assistance to suit your driving style

Thanks to the built-in potentiometer, you can adjust the assistance level at any time: high for city manoeuvring, light to preserve sporting feedback on open roads. This flexibility is particularly appreciated by Jaguar owners who switch between urban use and longer drives.

TÜV approval and safety

All our kits hold European CE approval and TÜV quality certification. They are also authorised for use in VHC rally, historic rally and drift competition.

In the event of an electrical failure, the system disengages automatically: the steering reverts to a fully mechanical mode and you can continue driving in complete safety.
