1998 Jaguar XJ220

Lhd - Believed 2757km From New

Photograph unavailable at present

Estimate:

SOLD for £66000

Registration No: S852ADO

Chassis No: SAJJEAEX8AX220789

Engine No: GA10294SB

CC: 3498

Colour: Green

Trim Colour: Beige

MOT: None

On offer here is a left-hand drive XJ220, which was acquired by the first owner, a private collector from East Anglia, on the 1st of September 1998, since when it had only been driven the 2757 kilometers displayed on the odometer when entered for this sale and this is believed to be the genuine total for the supercar since it left the works.

The 3498cc engine - a double overhead camshaft, four valves per cylinder, twin-turbocharged V6 with alloy heads and block, which produces an impressive 542bhp at 6500rom - is, of course, really barely run-in and is therefore ready and waiting to deliver its true potential. The same goes for the 5-speed, all-synchromesh box with triple cone synchroniser on first and second gears to withstand vertical take-offs. The independent suspension is by unequal length wishbones and inboard coil springs with dampers and anti-roll bars. Four pot calipers grasp AP Racing brake discs, which are ventilated, cross-drilled and should keep you out of trouble.

This sensational looking and very Grand Tourer, a truly awesome package, can deliver 0-100mph in under 8sec. According to the vendor, the car is still absolutely correct with Malachite green metallic paintwork and beige leather interior in excellent condition. It comes with all workshop manuals and books, wing protectors and a car cover. It was checked by Marque specialist Don Law in 2003, since when it has been stored in a heated garage. We understand that the specialised servicing of this extraordinary model can be undertaken by Jaguar Sport at the Browns Lane factory.

Recent valuations at public auction have resulted in the XJ220 being by far the best value in the supercar market today and this exceptionally low mileage example could become the superstar of your collection for a most reasonable investment.

Please note:

We may have given the impression that only the factory can service these supercars but in fact Don Law and others can perform this task very easily, and indeed do frequently. They advised on certain work on this car but that work was not carried out - as per the letter in the history file.

We now understand that the first owner may indeed have lived in Scotland and not East Anglia and we further understand that it formed part of the 'Fastmaster' production series in the U.S.A. and returned in 1994.

Naturally, as with the majority of these cars, sometimes there was many years before they were registered after they were delivered. The mileage is only believed to be genuine and not warranted as correct from new and we apologise for this error in the text.

Back at auction in france
In our next sale on 13th june 2011, in Paris.

French title

Châssis n° SAJJEAEX8AX220789

The Jaguar XJ220 that we are offering, no. 40 in the series and produced in 1992, was taken from the production line by Tom Walkinshaw, the boss of TWR, for his personal collection. It was then transferred to a collector, and for this reason was not registered until 1998. In 1998 it underwent a major overhaul, costing €16,500, with, in particular, a petrol tank replacement as recommended by the manufacturer. Another major overhaul was conducted in August 2010, and other works should be carried out before the sale, including replacement of the brakes and types. The last technical test was clear and the whole of the service book, including bills, will be supplied together with the car. The owner has confirmed to us that the vehicle was working perfectly and was able to take part in the 2011 Rallye de Paris, defending its name nobly against competition from the 200 other participants. Equipped with an Alpine car radio with 16/9 GPS, this Jaguar XJ220 has covered only 7,200 km from new. A real prototype on the road, it offers a truly delightful ride with the feeling that you are behind the wheel of a car created as part of a quest for the perfect performance.

Estimate: €130.000 - 170.000

Car was offered up by Bonhams in 2009 with an estimate of 105,000 to 115,000 GBP. Failed to sell. -> http://bonhams.co.uk/eur/auction/17258/lot/337/#

A left-hand drive model finished in green with beige leather interior, XJ220 chassis number '789' was originally allocated by Jaguar to the 1993 'Fast Masters' race series that had been devised to promote the model in the USA. Returned to the UK and refurbished at the Jaguar factory under the supervision of XJ220 Co-ordinator, Paul Wadley, the car was first registered in this country in 1998 and has had only three private owners since then. A total of only 3,956 kilometres has been covered from new and the car is reported as in generally good condition. Offered with current MoT and Swansea V5 registration document, '789' represents a rare opportunity to acquire a fine example of what in future years will surely be regarded as the marque's finest two-seater coupé.

1993 Jaguar XJ220

RM | Sotheby's - ARIZONA 2019

Chassis No. SAJJEAEX8AX220789

Engine No. 6A10332SB

One of approximately 275 made

Desirable early left-hand-drive example

Delivered new in Europe

Approximately 9,000 km since new

Exceptional original condition throughout

Fully serviced by Don Law in January 2017

This Jaguar XJ220 was produced 8 February 1993 and sold new to TRW chief Tom Walkinshaw in April of that same year, for his personal collection. It was then transferred to a collector, and for this reason was not registered until 1998. In 1998 it underwent a major overhaul that included a fuel tank replacement as recommended by the manufacturer. Another major overhaul was conducted in August 2010, and in 2011 other works were carried out, including replacement of the brakes and tires. The service file, including invoices, is included on file with the car. The previous owner participated in the 2011 Rallye de Paris. In 2011 it was sold and imported to Switzerland, where it was used very sparingly. With the last year, the car was sent to renowned XJ220 specialist Don Law who fully inspected and serviced the rare Jaguar, for approximately US$50,000, to ensure that it had been properly sorted and ready to drive. Finished in stunning Silverstone Green with Sand leather and equipped with an Alpine car radio with 16/9 GPS, this Jaguar XJ220 is in exceptional condition.

A landmark model in Jaguar’s illustrious history, the XJ220 is still the company’s fastest-ever production car. As such, it remains highly collectible, being sought after by Jaguar aficionados and supercar collectors alike. Boasting gorgeous looks and tremendous performance, this beautiful XJ220 represents a wonderful opportunity to acquire one of the most significant supercars of its era.
