The Jaguar XJ12 but not as we know it

If you’ve ever visited the Trax show at Silverstone, you’ll know that there are generally precious few Jaguars among the hordes of modified Japanese and German cars on show.

This year though, we found a very nicely presented Series 3 XJ12. It’s not quite as it left Browns Lane though. Lowered into the ground courtesy of air ride, the car runs a manual box and the V12 has been turfed out in favour of a BMWV8. The workmanship was top notch though and good enough for the car to join the ‘Top 10’ modified cars.
