I guess one of six (world wide) Jagaur XJ220S’s is one of those cars. It was a good car. It was very yellow, very obnoxious, and I very much need it.
2 meets today. C&C, & Oblivion (a 80s/90s car show). The 2nd one was at Ontario Place neat DT Toronto. It was a stunning location, shame the Gov’t will tear it down next year & build a Casino over it.

You're gonna wish you took it. It will haunt you until the end of time

Yeah I’m here for this. Even if it does have a hilariously bad Ford parts bin interior.

A few spots down there was a 1 or 2 Black Ferrari F40s, the one here was not Gas Monkeys/

Ferraris don’t matter. Crazy Jag s from when the company was going to die and they were like “let’s make the fastest car in the world because nothing matters ”? That matters.

An d to think they kinda half-assed the drivetrain...

Wow I’ve never seen one in yellow. Yellow>all other colors.
Also took my Jaguar to the British Car Union show today.

Center lock BBS meshes. Yes please.

Being a XJ220S they had to be real. T here where also lots of real wheels too. Lots of Borbets, Volks, etc.

but was it a XJ220S?
![]() 09/08/2019 at 21:16 |

Well, yes and no. “ Start with a Group B drivetrain and add T urbo” isn’t exactly half-assi ng it . They didn’t have a lot of options once they found nobody could build rubber to handle the w ei ght of the 4WD/V12 setup at the then-unheard-of speed of 220mph ( sound familiar? )

I mean the next cheapest option would be Porsche cup cars I’d imagine.

I hate the wheels and wing on the S's but I like the rest of the car.

I think it suits the character of the car, especially being yellow.

I love the C6 ZR1 for that reason. Global economy in the dumps? People need a 600 hp+ supercharged Corvette.

Gotta spend that bail out money some how.

You hate the best parts
![]() 09/08/2019 at 22:08 |

Or alternatively a 500+hp supercharged sedan/wagon, ya know, just to cover our bases.

Guy here in Nashville had the only original paint color, street legal XJ220S left and sold it a couple years ago.
![]() 09/08/2019 at 22:10 |

Well this one is registered & insured here. So add it to the other street legal one.

The interior is on par with an old Tempo, I’d put a race interior in it.
![]() 09/08/2019 at 22:19 |

but you still drive it with that cheap interior.

No, merely a 1985 Series 3 XJ6. Pictured: not my car. This one I parked next to was stunningly mint and minty.
![]() 09/08/2019 at 23:09 |

No, I just love the original wheels and spoiler that actually match the rest of the car ’s styling.

You seem to think Jag’s ethos was not “let’s half ass this because it’ll be great”
