Description
Project 8 is the fastest Jaguar saloon ever. Its 5. 0 litre supercharged V8 produces 600PS and 700Nm of torque, making it the most powerful engine ever fitted to a Jaguar road car. Maximum speed is 200mph and 0-60mph takes just 3. 3 seconds. While the car’s 8-speed transmission can manually paddle shift in just 0. 2 seconds – faster than the blink of an eye. Project 8 has achieved the fastest lap ever for a Jaguar on the Nordschleife, faster than any other four door production-intent sedan in history and faster than many renowned supercars. Total production was limited to 300 cars worldwide, each one hand-assembled at the SVO Technical Centre in Warwickshire, England. Engineered to be the world’s most exhilarating sports saloon, Project 8 uses motor sport derived suspension and a modified All Wheel Drive system for outstanding driver feel and agility. Damper mounts are ball-jointed to improve response and there are two ride heights – one for the road and a 15mm lower setting for the track. The heart of the car is Jaguar’s legendary supercharged V8. But speed and driving exhilaration aren’t just about power, Jaguar’s pioneering Lightweight Aluminium Architecture combined with Project 8’s extensive use of carbon fibre – for the bonnet, bumpers, fenders, side skirts and front splitter keep weight to a minimum.
This particular car is finished in Valencia Orange, without the track-package and fitted with the Touring Spoiler, making it the ultimate fast-road Jaguar. Forming part of the Jaguar Land Rover Fleet from new, the car has now covered just over five thousand miles. An incredibly rare car, offered for sale here directly from Jaguar’s own fleet!
