Jaguar XJ220
Some of you may find this interesting.
The car is a little bit special. It is tuned by TWR to give over 700bhp, and also has upgraded racing brakes and suspension.
The most interesting of all though that I found is that it is the most impossible car to get in and out of (and I've got in and out of a caterham with its roof up!).

I found it considerably easier to get in to than an F40!

Elton John's XJ220 was up for sale at Historics and it looked no worse to get in any out of than the Aeromax; I'd wager it comes down to technique.

It was the fact that the door seemed too far back and didn't open very far. This meant that even being pretty thin it was just very awkward to get into!
The owner even says it, and said that an Ultima GTR was easy to get into in comparison!

For £100 George will come over to Switzerland and take as many as you want. Isn't that what you said George?  Talking about  JP did anyone take a camera on the recent Aero trip through Switzerland that you organised
