Descrizione

The Jaguar XJ220 stands among a rarefied circle of iconic 1990s supercars. Conceived as a technological flagship, it was developed by Jaguar engineers in their spare time before evolving into one of the most captivating production models in the brand’s history. This 1993 example, showing just 2,200 kilometers, presents a rare opportunity for the discerning collector.

*Extremely rare color combination*
This Jaguar is not only a technical tour de force, it’s a chapter of automotive history in its own right. The car presented here is a true standout: chassis number 100 of only 277 XJ220s ever built, finished in the highly sought-after and exceedingly rare Daytona Black over a Smoke Grey interior. Only eighteen cars left the factory in this striking specification.

*Collector’s quality condition*
With just 2,200 kilometers, this XJ220 is virtually new. It remains entirely original and is in outstanding, collector-grade condition. Accompanied by its original documentation, service booklet, maintenance records, and accessories, it checks every box for the connoisseur or serious enthusiast.

*The development of the Jaguar XJ220*
Developed in partnership with Tom Walkinshaw Racing (TWR), the XJ220 was first shown as a concept in 1988. Like the XK120 before it, the name referred to its intended top speed of 220 mph. Upon its release, it claimed the title of the world’s fastest production car — a short-lived but symbolic reign that solidified its place as a technological milestone.

The production version was fitted with a 3.5-liter twin-turbocharged V6, derived from Jaguar’s XJR-10 and XJR-11 race cars. It produced around 542 horsepower and delivered performance that lived up to its name. Its chassis, braking system, and aerodynamics were all engineered with speed in mind, yet it never lost sight of luxury: the cockpit is spacious, comfortable, and tastefully finished.

Still, the XJ220 faced its share of challenges. The switch from V12 to V6, coupled with a significant price hike and a collapsing supercar market in the early 1990s, meant that Jaguar ultimately built only 277 units — far fewer than the 1,500 originally anticipated. That limited production only adds to its exclusivity today.

*A rare opportunity for collectors*
The example on offer here brings together extreme rarity, exceptionally low mileage, complete documentation, and a factory-original specification that sets it apart. More than just a legendary supercar, it represents a pivotal moment in Jaguar’s pursuit of performance excellence.

For collectors seeking a museum-worthy classic that once held the title of the fastest car in the world, this is an exceptional opportunity. Quite possibly a cornerstone addition to any serious collection.
