1993 Jaguar XJ220 S

When the Jaguar XJ220 first broke cover at the 1988 British International Motor show, it caused a stir the like of which had never been seen in the Midlands city. Looking like something from another planet, long and missile-like, the wild concept only got more unbelievable as the specification was revealed: 6.2 litres; 12 cylinders; four-wheel drive. A car-mad public unsurprisingly went wild, jostling to put down £50,000 deposits to secure their position in the queue—among them Elton John and Rod Stewart. In less than one hour, some 1,500 people had placed a pre-order for the XJ220.
