1993 Jaguar XJ220 For Sale - One Of 282 Examples, Only 768 Miles From New LMC is very proud to offer for sale this 1993 Jaguar XJ220 In its time the Jaguar XJ220 was the world’s fastest production automobile, named for its projected top speed, 220 mph, which was very nearly achieved in a time trial on the high-bank test track in Nardo, Italy. The project humbly began as a skunkworks project of Coventry’s design staff, who were soon dubbed the Saturday Club for their efforts after regular business hours. The initial prototype was presented to the public at the 1988 Birmingham International Motor Show and received unanimous praise, and customer interest skyrocketed. Initially the British manufacturer announced a pre-tax price of £290,000 and a production run of 350 vehicles. Approximately 1,400 reservations were recorded, each complemented by a £50,000 deposit. Build of the XJ220 was delegated to Jaguar Sport, the subsidiary racing company that the marque had created in tandem with Tom Walkinshaw Racing (TWR), the competition concern responsible for the latest evolution of XJR race cars. TWR had created a new power plant for the XJR-11 racer of 1989, a 542-horsepower, all-alloy turbocharged V-6 that was developed from Austin-Rover’s Group B rally car. This turbo V-6, dubbed the JV6, was chosen to be the new power plant for the XJ220, and the motor’s diminutive volume and size allowed it to be neatly packaged amidships within slippery aluminum coachwork penned by Jaguar Design’s Keith Helfet. The very first production car was unveiled by Diana the Princess of Wales at the Bloxham factory in October 1991. Deliveries began in June 1992, and by this time, the sticker price had ballooned to £470,000. A grand total of 282 units were produced, far less than they had originally accounted for, at which point the program was canceled in the wake of the collapse of the supercar market. This example offered here for sale was delivered new to a client in Vienna, Austria finished in the ionic specification of Spa Silver with Grey Connolly leather interior which suits the car well as it was the launch spec. Having been collector owned from new, it has only seen a mere 768 miles from new and remains in showroom condition. Recently european service specialist DK Engineering attended to various matters on the car including servicing the braking system, adjusting the door locking mechanism, carrying out an annual service that included replacing the fuel filters, ignition coil, spark plugs and amplifier, XJ220 cambelt service, Replace three oil hoses, Identify and rectify fuel supply fault, replace coolant hose, refit pumps in tanks, renew oil tank fixings, fit new Pirelli XJ220 tyre set and change oil. This unbelievable XJ220 is accompanied by the original books, parts manual, first-aid kit, warning triangle,and Wheel nut adapter and service receipts. The Supercar market has exploded in the last few years with a new era of collectors entering the market looking to acquire their poster cars. As competitor supercars like the Ferrari F40, Porsche 959, Bugatti EB110 have more than doubled in recent year, the XJ220 is still highly undervalued in comparison.
