Awesome choice. Is there going to be any trouble maintaining the car if you're taking it to the track? I think I remember hearing there was a single company that does parts and maintenance and it wasn't Jaguar

 

It certainly isn't Jaguar, that's for sure (well, not maintenance at least).

 

On topic, hell of a car, and a ridiculously cool choice. Obviously TWR's already fettled it into a firebreather (well, more of one), but do you have any mod ideas?

Congrats! I saw that car at SEMA a couple years ago and it's defiantly a head turner, enjoy it in good health.

A very rare and this version is a very cool car. Normal cars..no. I believe Jaguar originally pitched a V12 engine, farmed out the design to TWR (who won Le Mans for them in the Silk Cut Jags) however it ended up with a version of the Mini Metro Group B Rally Car engine and deposit holders sued. I seem to remember it crushing a Pagani in a 0 to a lot sprint on Top Gear. TWR then produced a race car with a v12, which looked a lot better than the stock ones....case study in British car business myopia.

 

I would really curious to hear you review it, if you can with differences with the stock ones. I have seen a few of these...they look spectacular. The old OC VIK Lambo dealership had one or two.

I believe the original color of the car was light blue. It has recently been serviced so i am not touching the car or modding anything. Plenty of hp. One thing i will do is put a front lift system on the car as it will scrape just about anywhere.

Thank you all for the kind words.

This is actually quite a coincidence BMWRACER because I just started a Jaguar XJ220 owners club here in Toronto.

 

The first annual meeting is at my house like a couple of days after you take delivery of the car. Hope you can make it out!

There are XJ220's in Toronto. I have only seen one for sale at a dealer.
