1993 Jaguar XJ220 ‘S’ Conversion

1993 Jaguar XJ220 ‘S’ Conversion

This is the 1993 Jaguar XJ220 ‘S Specifiction’ by Don Law Racing (044). This example was first constructed in October of 1993, where it was originally finished in ‘Spa Silver’ over a Grey leather interior. Sometime during the 1990’s, this example was upgraded to ‘S Specification’ by @donlawracing. This S Specification XJ220 was refinished in a beautiful shade of ‘TWR Jaguar White’ paint, over a black leather & Alcantara interior. The standard XJ220 model was produced under a subsidiary known as ‘JaguarSport’, and ever since the cars debut at the Birmingham Auto Show in 1988, it still remains to be one of the most intriguing cars to this day. The XJ220 was originally planned to used a V12 engine developed by Tom Walkinshaw Racing (TWR), however, once production began, the cars were equipped with a twin-turbocharged V6 instead. Ultimately, due to the change in the powertrain from concept to production, amongst a few other factors, only around 281 or so examples of the XJ220 were built and sold in the entire world. While it might appear like a Jaguar XJ220 S, which was a performance-oriented variant of the XJ220, it’s actually not exactly that. As far as the “S” variant goes, TWR completed 9 total cars, but only 5 of those were made as road-going models. So that makes the XJ220 S, 1 of only 5 of its kind in the world. This car is one of several recreations of the XJ220 S/LM completed by Don Law Racing based in the United Kingdom. The car’s original panels were replaced with carbon fiber, and other additions such as a new front splitter, wider sills, and an adjustable rear spoiler are present. The car also features an updated suspension, BBS wheels, and an upgraded engine. This car was previously owned by @mrgumball3000, the founder of the Gumball 3000, and is currently being offered for sale by @joemacari!
