Supercars are coming to the British capital next month when the London Concours is back at the Honourable Artillery Company on 28-30 June.
Exotic machinery celebrating some of the best of high-performance cars will compete in the ‘Pursuit of Speed’ class, and leading the way for fans of classic cars will be a Jaguar XJ220.
For a period, the Jaguar XJ220 claimed to be the fastest production car in the world
This is the car that, when new, our sister title Autocar described as “the most accomplished supercar ever made”.
While it lost the V12 between concept and production, the twin-turbo V6 of the roadgoing version still gave it the ability to complete the benchmark 0-60mph sprint in just 3.7 secs with a 212mph top speed.
And today its beguiling shape and raw performance, free from driver aids, still inspires.
