SAM SAYS: 

“I first drove a Jaguar XJR-12 nearly twenty years ago and it was an experience I’ll never forget. The combination of intuitive mechanical grip, reassuring aerodynamic downforce and that naturally-aspirated V12 makes the XJR-12 an absolutely sensational machine to drive. Unlike some Group C cars that feel optimised for a single qualifying lap, the Jaguar feels every inch the endurance racer — stable, predictable and capable of covering long distances at tremendous speed without exhausting or surprising its driver. Few cars combine such capability with so much character.”
