The story of the Jaguar XJ220 is about high hopes and big letdowns.
Built by a passionate team, it wowed everyone at first but faced problems during production. Both Jaguar and its fans ended up feeling disappointed, with the car not living up to its promises.

I like 1st gen Acura NSX more. The XJ220 was on display in Prague for a while,And it's Price was ... for the lack of a more adequate term ... insane 24 million CZK at the time, translating to 500 000 £ in the 90ies due to the exchange rate. Which Is, again, totally insane. And yes, IT was already confirmed IT would never get thé V12 And would be stuck with V6 instead. Ridiculous.

The problem was there were a lot of people thinking they could flip the car at the time it was first shown - but by the time the car came out the economy had gone into recession - the fact that the specs of the car changed just gave them an excuse to get out of purchasing it.

A friend once owned an XJS V12 and when we had to drive back to the city, I told him that I was going to take his car and he could drive mine. I left a few minutes after him and caught up with him and got a shock when I looked at the speedo ... it accelerated like shit out of a shanghai. The XJS and E-type were two of my favourite cars in the Jag range.

I enjoyed this video and glad it wasn't narrated by AI or if it was, it was a good version. AI probably would have pronounced it XJ two,two, zero and I didn't hear any of the typical AI mispronunciations. I'm going to go check out the Leno assessment of the car.

I sat in one once on a tour of the Jaguar factory. I'm 6' 2" tall and the roof is so low I could not sit upright in the car and had to lean my head/neck at 45 degrees just to get into the drivers seat. It would be impossible for anyone of my height to drive this car. You would need to be approx 5' 6" or less to fit into the drivers seat on this car without your head touching the roof.

I've been thinking that they should use the bodystyle with a few updates to things like the squared tail-lights, updated engine technological advancements such as superchargers, etc., update interior functionality for comfort and immersion in a sort of symbiotic feeling like being "one" with the car...if they keep the bodystyle with a few tweaks in more modern design to rear lights and more refined interior design and use updated tech methods for the engine and keep it mid-engine it would probably do really well provided the economy recovers and they offer it in a vast array of colors as well as developing additional body modifications for functionality variables...more reliablity for higher pricepoints are generally required if a company hopes to make a generous profit from such a product. Superchargers, twin turbos cumulative spool boosting (one lower end start the other at mid rpm to high) for example...V-8, V-6, V-10, V or W12 and the same for 16s with quad turbo options, and possible additional electric motors on front end for build up acceleration improvement in 0-60mph.

The 1990s were a rough period economically and genuine customers for such cars were very rare (more speculators than real purchasers). Even the McLaren F1 failed to meet its sales targets. With respect to the XJ220, there were a huge number of problems. The major initial problem was clearly the V12. It has always been a low efficiency boat anchor. At its best, the V12 engine was producing under 60 bhp per litre in road format (less than a MGB engine which was designed in the 1950s). What were they even thinking announcing this car with this engine ? It was at this point that the XJ220 should have stopped.

Hers the thing, awd jag was not experienced with, so better they did simpler rwd. Motor the v12s probably were great sounding but heavy and slower than a berserker rally var turbo v6... So probably this is a better car than the original concept would of been.. But ppl wanted bigger more complex for a supercar.... But I'm gonna say this was better than the one they were designing

The disappointment and disgust I felt when they announced the V6 instead of the V12, was similar to the ruining of Game of Thrones with the appaling final series. Both had the potential to be amazing, but were self sabotaged at the final hurdle.

Those were the days that wedge designs were out, and everything had to be round. I can't judge the technical performances nor the comfort of the interior (but who makes such silly mistakes as doors that don't open sufficiently ?), however, I can't say I'm in love with the design of the car. It's "not bad", but it leaves me lukewarm at best, depending on which colour the car got (I wasn't a fan of the Bugatti either). The Jag simply looked too long for a production model, it probably rarely fitted a parking lot. The design simply lacks that "timeless" quality of the best designed cars. It looks "terribly" 1990's, while for example the somewhat forgotten "baby Countach", the Bravo still looks modern 50 years after its introduction. A combination of straight lines and curves, some pinch lines here and there without overdoing it work better than this "everything round" approach. I'd give the design not more than a 7/10, the Bravo 8,5 to 9, just like the McLaren F1

Yeah there’s a bloody good reason of why it didn’t sell very good?! Was because all the customers got fucked over on the engine they were getting, they were told the car WILL be getting a V12 lump when instead they got a shitty V6 lump so underpowered for the size of the car?!!! I would be pissed as well……I mean why didn’t they just go for just 2 extra cylinders and make it a V8 instead that wouldn’t have been so bad? Would it?
@AutoSapienYT

I was in contact with Jim Randle during 2006 and 2007 and he confirmed and added more detail to what I thought went wrong - Jaguar showed a V12-powered supercar and then delivered a V6 AND, beside that, they brought out the Jaguar XJR-15 at almost the same time as the XJ220 which just confused consumers. Jim added that Tom Walkinshaw basically tricked Jaguar engineers into abandoning the V12 in favour of a V6 because he was secretly developing his own car at the time with the V12 in it - yes - the XJR-15 was Tom Walkinshaw's baby and he essentially sabotaged the XJ220 project for selfish reasons. How would you feel if you were promised a world-beating V12 Ferrari and, after leaving a chunky deposit and waiting for it to be developed, you found out the 12 had been scrapped in favour of a V6? And that is precisely how Jaguar customers felt - CHEATED. Supercars of this calibre need at least 12 cylinders.

Great upload. Beautiful & excellent car, unfortunately with a poor company backing leading it to its (predictable) demise, as so many. The worlds has many more exquisite cars past & present (& future). The best? Yes for Jaguar, for the world, not really. too much resemblance (in every aspect) to what has been developed before. Other cars/brands were much more 'their time ahead'. One only has to consult few proper car encyclopedia and an open mind to what (automotive technological wonders) has been created in the past and also was 'little or not' properly communicated.
