Car to be at auction 12/20
www.historics.co.uk/buying/auctions/2020-12-12/cars/ref-168-1988-jaguar-xjr-s-v1 ...

Auction description:
Lot 340 - 1988 Jaguar XJR-S V12 Le Mans
Registration F91 RKV
Chassis Number SAJJSAEW3BA154603
Engine Number 8S062228HA
Odometer reading 2,401 miles
Estimate £46,000 - £55,000

Totally original condition
Only 2,401 miles from new
Concours condition
Number 54 out of 100 examples

This stunning Limited Edition XJR-S was originally registered on 26th October 1988 and is a bespoke model produced by JaguarSport and Tom Walkinshaw Racing (TWR) Group to commemorate the marques triumph at Le Mans in 1988. Only 100 examples were built, this is number 54. Supplied to the first owner by TWR Jaguar Ltd in Leamington Spa, the first owner enjoyed the car sparingly for two years before putting the Jaguar into climate-controlled storage facilities. Some 25 years later, the car came out of storage and had a recommissioning service. This car is 100% original condition and is in time warp condition; museum quality would not be an understatement. This car featured in Jonathon Woods’ book ‘Jaguar; the Legend’. Finished in Tungsten with Cream Connolly leather interior, burr walnut adorns the dashboard. Sitting on a correct set of 15-inch JaguarSport alloy wheels, a new set of Pirelli 235/60 R15 tyres were fitted during the recommissioning and have covered just over 100 miles. Standard equipment on these luxurious grand tourers includes electric lumbar support and heated seats, air conditioning and cruise control; this example is fitted with the standard Jaguar radio system which is in full working order. Still sporting the original coachlines bearing the 1988 race winning XJR-9, this is a great indication of the paintwork being totally original.

It is supplied with a V5C registration document and the original handbooks, together with the spare keys. Given the age, mileage and original condition, this is almost certainly an unrepeatable opportunity to purchase a rare and well-preserved piece of Jaguar and TWR motoring history.

Auction description:

The Iconic Sale at Silverstone Festival 2025 - Collectors' Cars

1988 Jaguar XJR-S V12 Le Mans - 2,597 Miles from New

Ticking every box in terms of rarity, mileage, condition and history. Car #054 of 100 could be enjoyed on the road or put on static display, or both!

The Jaguar Legacy Collection.

JaguarSport produced a special edition of these new XJR-S 'Celebration Le Mans' models to commemorate Jaguar's win at the Le Mans 24-Hour race in 1988, each individually numbered. The ‘JaguarSport’ model added extra leather trim, motifs to the foot plates, ‘Growler’ bonnet badge, JaguarSport alloy wheels, and de-chroming. Only 100 examples were built, and this car, #054, was supplied to its first owner, a Mr. Bishop, by TWR Jaguar Ltd., of Leamington Spa, in Tungsten with a Cream Connolly leather interior and first registered on 26th October 1988.

The history file is among the finest we have seen for the model, and includes the original order confirmation letters between Mr. Bishop, and TWR Jaguar Limited, together with further correspondence that includes an invitation to the JaguarSport Celebration Day at Silverstone on 31st October 1988, offering a lap of the circuit in one of the Le Mans Winning XJR-9 cars, as a passenger, naturally! According to previous sales information, Mr. Bishop enjoyed the car sparingly for two years before putting the Jaguar into climate-controlled storage facilities and remained the first of two former keepers for thirty-years. It was with its second owner briefly between 2019 and 2020, when it was sold and entered the Jaguar Legacy Collection, as we know it today.

Used as a roadgoing example of the JaguarSport collaboration, it was featured in side profile along with its interior, and captioned as car #054 in Jonathan Woods’ book ‘Jaguar: The Legend’, a copy of which is generously included. The car can be found between the preceding chapter about the XJR-9 and by later chapter on the XJ220, all of which were made possible by Tom Walkinshaw and his team. Presented with its original handbooks within the embossed XJR-S folio, aforementioned correspondence, historic receipts, period magazines and brochures dating from 1988, and supplied with a fresh MOT.

Given the age, and the mileage of just 2,597 from new, this is almost certainly an unrepeatable opportunity to purchase an early and rare museum-quality example of British sporting history. Jaguar and TWR’s collaboration on this model is perhaps the last true manufacturer-race engineering partnership of its era.
