I love the irony of those cars seeing that the regular Jaguar V12 was one of the quietest engines around - and the standard XJ-S was hardly a car to go racing in.

I remember when Group 44 was in a small garage in Falls Church, Virginia. Immaculate shop, beautifully prepared cars. As I recall they moved out to Winchester, VA later as they grew. Could be wrong about that though.

Why does this one sound so vastly different from all the other xjs v12 videos i wonder 🤔
@sparkplug1018Ай бұрын
The flat head cylinder heads may have something to do with it, also not running an X pipe (or H pipe) would effect the tone as well.

However, because I am assured that you are a 'stand-up' fellow, I was stating that the Jag appeared to be muffled, and quieter than a race prepared car, a proper 'screamer' as were the ones that I have heard...this one more like a highway going, family one. Take care.
