Saw one in person

I saw one in Ultimate motor cars in Orlando. Green! It was having an engine overhaul for around $55,000. Cheap!

There is one on sale for £125000 here, which I had a quick look at... it is a possible buy at the moment.

You can buy a new one from Jaguar for £250000 right now if you phone them up. They are just sitting there with dust covers over them.

I was fortunate enough to ride in an XJ220 back in 1994. It was a great car.

I did a lot of track work in my spare time. I have a few trophies from back when cars couldn't go over 160MPH.

The XJ220 I rode in was a former "Fast Masters" racer. They ran great but had a few dings in them. Racing big cars on small tracks (as they did in the Fast Masters series) isn't such a good idea.

Jaguar invited journalists to a race track to drive the new Jaguars and ride in XJ220s at speed around the track. Being a Jaguar fan, I was there in a second.

I believe production had ended before I rode in the car.

I don't think there is a car on earth that looks better than the XJ220. I stood in aw' of it when I first saw it. They had a gang of bad ass cars there, the 220, 1 Murcielago (the one we delivered) 2nd in the nation, Aston Martin DB6, an older mid 70's Lambo...I'm not sure what model?!

Some nice cars!

Oh I would take the XJ220 over the Bently...You don't see many Rappers sporting those around!
