Description:
This BlackBerry theme is designed with the pictures about the Jaguar XJ220. Do you
know more about the The Jaguar XJ220? The Jaguar XJ220 is a mid-engined supercar produced
by Jaguar in collaboration with Tom Walkinshaw Racing as Jaguar Sport between 1992 and
1994. It held the record for the highest top speed of a production car (350 km/h, 217
mph) (although it was modified from standard to achieve this), until the arrival of the
McLaren F1 in 1994. The XJ220 is unrelated to other XJ models, despite sharing the "XJ"
prefix.
In the 1980s, Jaguar's chief engineer Jim Randle, as part of an informal group called
"The Saturday Club", began work on a concept car, code-named XJ220, which - if put into
production - could compete in a potential new Group B racing category. He saw it as
competition for cars such as the Ferrari F40 and Porsche 959 and wanted to re-capture the
glory years of Jaguar racing from the 50s and 60s. He envisioned what was essentially an
updated XJ13 - a lightweight two-seater with a powerful mid-mounted V12 engine. Randle
expanded on the idea by settling on all-wheel drive and an integral safety-cage so the
car could be safely raced at extremely high speeds.The concept car used a quad-cam 6.2-
litre version of Jaguar's V12 engine, left over from a development project to test the
viability of a quad-cam in the XJR-9 racer. The all-wheel-drive system was produced by FF
Developments, who had experience with such systems going back to the 1960s and the Jensen
FF. The car was styled by Keith Helfet and included scissor-style doors similar to those
in use by Lamborghini. The name "XJ220" was assigned as a reference to the targeted top
speed of 220 mph (350 km/h). This BlackBerry theme is designed the cool car of xj220bw.
