Modern & classic thoroughbred Jaguars
09/11/2008
It has taken the best part of 2 years for the Jaguar XK and XKR (X150) aluminium-bodied models to find full acceptance in the eyes of British Jaguar buyers.
However, now that they have, Racing Green Cars feels the time is right to launch a range of upgrade equipments for these cars. These performance, handling and styling modifications have been carefully designed, developed and tested since 2006 by Racing Green in concert with our German Jaguar tuning partner – Arden of Krefeld.
As the initiation of this launch programme, a flagship Racing Green Jaguar XKR 475 was recently tested by Jeremy Clarkson. The report of this evaluation is featured in the In Gear section of The Sunday Times which was published on 9 November 2008. Some of you may have seen this convertible XKR 475, finished in Emerald Fire, on the Racing Green Stand at MPH 08.
The car in question was equipped with a full Arden AJ20 body conversion, a 475 BHP engine upgrade with water methanol injection and a special quad exhaust system, lowered suspension, and 20” forged alloy wheels.
Racing Green Cars is in a position to supply new Jaguar XKs and XKRs, which can be converted to the full flagship XKR 475 specification or to a customer’s preferred level of upgrade. Alternatively, we can carry out such work on a Jaguar XK or XKR that is already owned by a customer.
You may also be interested to know that Racing Green Cars has been working in conjunction with the franchised Jaguar dealership Swain & Jones of Farnham in Surrey. Together we have developed a special limited edition run of XKR 100s to mark the dealership’s 100th Anniversary. These cars are unlike any other XKR that can be bought from any other Jaguar dealership !
