Returning to the Goodwood Motor Circuit for the first Revival Sale since 2019, Bonhams is offering another
returnee, a 1956 Jaguar D-Type Sports-Racing Two-Seater, estimate £900,000 – 1,200,000, which has
participated in the Revival on several occasions, and the Mille Miglia Retrospective. |
Pairing up with the D-Type is an example of its 1990s spiritual successor - a 1993 Jaguar XJ220,
prepared by Don Law racing. Like the D-Type, the XJ220 also campaigned at Le Mans, winning the GT
class of 1993, while on the road, was the fastest production car of its day reaching speeds of 200mph. This
example, supplied new to Germany, has only covered 385 miles and has an estimate of £400,000 –
500,000. |
