All Jaguar wins at Le Mans →

Compiled and maintained by Slipstream Paddock from published race results. Wins are counted by chassis constructor, by engine supplier and by the company that owned the marque at the time, because those three answers differ and most tables pick one without saying which. Where sources disagree, the disagreement is recorded rather than resolved silently.
