Jaguar XJ220-C

This car competed in the Invitation Class in the 2 hour long British Empire Trophy race for Group C Endurance cars at the Silverstone Historic Festival meeting in August 2001.

It's the 1993 Jaguar XJ220-C of AJL Racing that was driven in the race by Gerry Wainwright and Alan Lloyd. The Jaguar XJ220 was produced from 1992 to 1994 with a 3,498cc twin-turbocharged V6 engine, and in 1993 a racing version, the XJ220-C was introduced to compete in FISA GT Racing. Three of the cars competed in the 1993 Le Mans 24 Hour race, one of them finishing first in the GT category but was later disqualified for running without catalytic converters. The other two cars failed to finish the race. In 1995 two cars were entered but both dropped out before the halfway mark.
