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. thumbs

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!


Please take a look at my car photography website:
