At the end of 1984. Tom Walkinshaw of TWR announced his
intention to build a range of special XJS Coupés under the name TWR
Sport and called it the XJR-S. A significant development had gone
into the cars. aided by TWR's experience with European touring car
XJ-S's they had raced for Jaguar. A wind tunnel was used to design
the new GRP body kit which provided a 12% improvement coefficient.
Exterior brightwork was either painted satin black or finished to
co-ordinate with the body colors and bodies were painted in a
specific range of single tone or two tone schemes. The final
external touch was the substitution of 8" x 18" Speedline alloy
wheels fitted with Goodyear NCT Eagle tyres. Mechanically the buyer
had the choice of either a conventional 3. 6 litre six cylinder or a
5. 3 litre V12 engine. Alternatively a well breathed on 6. 0 litre
V12 engine was available with a special long throw crankshaft. br/>forged pistons and remapped electronics which took the car up to
380bhp and a top speed of 170mph.

This TWR Jaguarsport XJR-S 5. 3 V12 automatic was fist registered
in January 1989 and is finished in signal red with magnolia leather
interior with red piping and walnut interior trim. Having had just
four owners from new this TWR has covered an extremely low 32. 00
miles which can be warranted by the extensive history file which

serviced by TWR Jaguar in Coventry eight times until 1999 when Guy
Salmon Jaguar took over care before its recent services having been
fulfilled by Jaguar specialists. New rear brake calipers. pads and
Disks and new exhaust silencers are amongst the works of note
within the last 10. 00 miles covered and this coupled with all user
manuals. books and invoices plus brochures from new this XJR-S with
full TWR body styling and all luxuries as you would expect with a
