Would you drive it looking like that I know I wouldnt.
Always had a soft spot for the XJS,back when I was a lad my mums mate used to have a brand new V12 every 12-24 months for about 5years.Used to love having a spin in them.I still like em now

Fuck me!

that is a beautiful, classic piece of british design completely ruined by the addition of an inapropriate DIY interpretation of a Halfords/Ripspeed piece of crap.

Thats an original TWR (Tom Walkenshaw Racing) Spoiler, if it is a TWR racing model, they were a very limited run of 12 cars with big valve heads, higher compression engines, hotter cams, uprated box and an aero pack, but this car dosn't have the front bib fitted. They were BIG money back in the day, it was an £18,000 kit! Seriously collectable if it is a genuine car!

They were also a 'best kept secret' as I understand them!

Read the whole advert, and the seller says:

"i also have an other bootlid if you don't want the spoiler, you get them both."

So, not that bad at all.

TWR developed a kit for privateer teams to make the XJS competetive in endurance racing, but Jaguar were so impressed they took the kit onto the factory race teams, and it became a long standing partnership. Jaguar actually gave TWR 12 cars for them to upgrade and sell as promotional tools. They are very rare, I have not seen one for years, if it is a gen car it will go for a fortune!

When i worked at the Jag radford engine site back in the 80S there were 3 V12 engines built that were
7LTRs with Warrior 5 valve cyl heads i was told these made 700 hp on the dyno
Its said these engines never ran but i know they did as
I know the whereabouts of 1 engine and its pushing an xjs along,
I also built 2 4ltr straight 6 twin turbo engines which were put in police xjss
All before camera phones :-(
