When it comes to Group C Jaguars, the temptation is to go on about the XJR-9, its V12 and the glory of the Silk Cut livery and Le Mans. Come to think of it, especially on the V12 point, I do. But let’s remember for a moment that the XJR story is of a years-long endeavour with many variants, engines, liveries and different series.
