    Best looking Jaguar ever! Love the fact that they did go to Le Mans with the XJ220-C! It is really great that Jag did make that attempt! RESPECT and LOVE to Jaguar for that and, on the side, the 1993 GT class win!

    One of my favorites cars and a great masterpiece British engineer, still beautiful no matter how old is, like British designs has that touch of class and sport how done by McLaren, Aston Martin , Bentley and Jaguar.

    Search under XJ220C Le Mans 1993 and you can see it in action spanking Porsche in the GT class.

    I remember that customers were retracting their orders when it turned out to be less then what Jaguar has promised. It's competitor from the same brand - XJR-15 was full carbon-fiber, 6.0 V12 race machine and was much better even if cost twice the money of XJ220 (though you got race events included in that price with XJR).

    If fact the XJ220 was fitted with the MG Metro 6R4 engine but with twin turbos added. Just imagine that in the 6R4, it doesn’t bear thinking about!

    About time they re-released this with the V12 it always should have had ...

    A GT in 93 with 850bhp? Not surprised it won. Lol

  • @MrKeys57

    AMAZING! i think in a class way above both Ferrari and Lambo! - Jaguar just have that "je ne sais quoi"! - and with Alain at the steering wheel, well, what could one ask for more?

    de Cadenet clearly just said that it was a successful racer. It won its category in Le Mans.

  • @greigsanderson9673
    @greigsanderson9673 5 років тому +4

    550hp and 218mph is pretty good.

    0:38 is it okay for engine, when Alain always turn engine off right after pretty fast journey on high RPM?
    I mean does it supposed to keep on idle for at least minute or two before turning ignition off?

  • @PSNcharlie97
    @PSNcharlie97 11 років тому +2

    Only partially correct, the only success that the car saw was at the '93 Le Mans race, where it took a class win, but was subsequently DSQ'ed after post-race inspection found that it's exhaust manifold was out of regulation.

    XJ220 is a very fast car and even now, it is still fast but XJ220C is not a successful racer. The size was way too big to compete with other rivals.

  • @joedirt7091

    jaguar dropped ball the with xj220 it was supposed a four cam V12 engine not a puny pathetic V6!

    • @greendogg83
      @greendogg83 5 років тому +10

      A puny pathetic v6 that outperformed almost anything else at the time.

    • @weallfollowmanutd
      @weallfollowmanutd 5 років тому +6

      Oh dear.... You couldn't be more wrong. They tested the v12 and it was too heavy and not powerful enough to make it reach 220mph.
      The V6 was a twin turbo rally derived engine from group B in the Metro XR4.
      There's a company now that sells parts and tunes engines for the XJ220 that can produce over 800hp with light modifications. Name a classic Hypercar that is capable of that.

      The decision to put the V6 was due to emissions regulations and it made the car lighter.
