XJR 15 Jaguar Sport
Jaguar Sport XJR 15
The Jaguar Sport XJR-15 is a two-seater sports car produced by JaguarSport, a subsidiary of Jaguar and Tom Walkinshaw Racing, between 1990 and 1992. The chassis was designed based on the XJR-9, which won the Le Mans race and was designed by Tony Southgate. Peter Stevens, who later co-designed the McLaren F1, designed the body of the XJR-15. The automobile was part of the Jaguar Intercontinental Challenge racing series, supporting three Formula One races: Monaco, Silverstone, and Bath. The concept was conceived by Tom Walkinshaw in 1988 after seeing the XJ220 concept at the British Motor Show. Wealthy racing enthusiasts pressured Walkinshaw to produce a "road going racer." The XJR-15 was intended as a superior replacement for the XJ220, with modifications made to expand space and enhance accessibility. The scale model was ready by Easter 1989, and the first prototype was completed by October
that same year. The first prototype was delayed due to preparations for the Le Mans race, but it was ready for Tom Walkinshaw to drive when he returned from France in July 1990. Developed by TWR, the XJR-15 was designed to be similar to the Jaguar C and D types, the Ford GT40, and the Ferrari 250 GTO. Due to its limited production run, the automobile was never classified as a type-approved vehicle. The production of the XJR-15 was announced in a press release on November 15, 1990, and the official launch took place at Silverstone in early 1991. JaguarSport, a subsidiary of TWR, was responsible for the production of the XJR-15 in Bloxham, Oxfordshire, England, between 1990 and 1992. The XJR-15 is a competition vehicle powered by a naturally aspirated 24-valve Jaguar V12 engine with a capacity of 5,993 cc (6.0 L) and produces 450 horsepower (336 kW). It features a sophisticated electronically
managed fuel injection system and a 'fly by wire' throttle, making it the first road-going vehicle to be constructed entirely out of carbon and Kevlar composites. The XJR-15 is 480 centimetres in length, 190 centimetres in width, and 110 centimetres in height, with a final weight of 1,050 kilogrammes, equivalent to 2,315 pounds. The interior of the XJR-15 is functionally minimalist, with minimal details that reveal its racing nature. The front suspension is made up of wishbones with a wide base and push rods connected to spring damper units mounted horizontally across the middle of the vehicle. The rear suspension unit is used in the XJR-9, featuring vertical coil springs mounted in units with uprights within the rear wheels. This configuration allows for the greatest number of venturi tunnels possible. The XJR-15 has a gearing-limited top speed of 191 miles per hour (307 kilometres per
hour), with a 0-60 mph (0-97 km/h) time of 3.9 seconds. Due to its design for road use, the ride height was slightly higher than necessary to realize the full potential of the under-body aerodynamics. The suspension was softer than what would be found on the XJR-9 racer, and Tom Walkinshaw made a last-minute deal to switch his tyre suppliers from Goodyear to Bridgestone just before the start of the race series. Tiff Needell, who conducted road tests of a development car at Silverstone in 1991, stated that "the result is oversteer." However, when the car was equipped with the appropriate tires, the suspension was set up to be more gentle, and the results were unanimously positive. In 1992, Ian Kuah published an article in World Sports Cars stating that the XJR-15 had good ride quality, with higher levels of grip than any rational person could achieve. The steering was well-weighted, making
it easy to make smooth inputs, and the seat of the pants feel and communication were both excellent. The enormous AP Racing brakes, with pads more pliable for use on the road, were able to "wash off speed with steely determination" when stopping. Ron Grable, a racing driver, wrote in Motor Trend in May 1992, describing the XJR-15 as a "wonderful ride all the way around the track" and the ideal compromise between street driving and racing. Despite being made entirely of composite materials, the XJR-15 is lightweight, improving performance in every way. It has relatively low spring and roll rates to maintain stability in pitch and roll, and provides a high level of ride regulatory compliance. However, the V-12 engine produces various mechanical noises that are superimposed on top of the rackety rise and fall of the exhaust. In terms of practicality, the XJR-15 is not very impressive. The

มุมมอง 7721 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา
A shooting brake is a type of vehicle that originated in the United Kingdom. It is an upscale, estate car that combines the features of a luxury sedan with those of a station wagon. Historically, shooting brakes were used by hunters to transport hunting gear, such as shotguns, luggage, and game, while still providing ample space for passengers. Today, shooting brakes are often referred to as "l...

It's a great car ... 🤙🏼
Simple answer, no. Did it have its faults? Yes, but worst car? Absolutely bloody not.
The answer is no.
What was do you think
I agree, did it have its faults? Yes, was it rubbish? No.
@@EverythingMechanical the Marina is pretty close, I owned one for a couple of years and I became very close to a set of wheel ramps and a grease gun. How a committee at BL could’ve got together, thrown a bunch of parts onto a new car that had known faults on other cars and said job done is beyond me.
And they've all been sold even before they started production.
The question reads whether the TR7 was the worst British Car ever. HA! HA! Every car "built" in Britain was BAD! How can it be said? Because every car built in Britain was the worst. The British thought that every car should be owned by a mechanical genius who owned a Garage-full of tools and battery-chargers. Oh, and every owner had to also be very adept at rust repair and suspension repair. Masochism helped an awful lot as the cars were seldom weather-tight.
your not wrong lol

I wanted to watch this as i had an excel many years ago but i gave up after 3 minutes of looking at the same distorted image of an elite and listening to a computer generated voice with bad punctuation and mis pronouncation, too annoying.
Im still learning and improving thanks for your comment
Nice car but you cant use the V12 HE engines, they drop valve seats because the crappy heads are India made and the valves are also some import crap, the pre HE is much better! All english made by BL and much stronger. So convert al HE to pre HE V12 Engines or Mercedes 560SEL V8!
Thank you and i agree
They only seem to have problems with them when they go to America, where their mechanics have neither the knowhow or sophistication to look after them.

I have a 1977 Shadow II with 55,000 miles - what is the value if it is in excellent condition and very original. Also I have a question as to the Brake Fluid. Can it be added and refilled with another brand other than what is recommended in the Manuel?
Dont risk it its frensh citoren system
Okay, at 0:23 you mentioned the Bentley S1 - no such model - it's simply called the Bentley S Saloon, also just noticed - @ 5:53, Em Kay Vee Eye!!?? You mean the Mark Six (Mk VI) Bentley, I'm sure! Other than that, it's a necessarily and brutally honest opinion of this series Rolls Royce. Well done, congratulations and many thanks, I did enjoy it. Take care and all the best.
hi there, i can tell you the chassis on the 1/2a were a lot stronger right up to 1971 after that,they were made of thinner material,because of BL's policy, a good vehicle but rust buckets which was not addressed.also g/box design the rear mainbearing housing could leak leading to oil to pass into the transfer box.i had it on every l/rover i owned
Thank you peter for your comments apreciaated

I have done this experiment in 1982 with cycle dynamo’ I have done this same experiment 40 years before with a toy car Dc motor.. in 1982 i were studying in 4 class’ there is a scooter mechanic in my area’ the mechanic narrated me the process of magnet and copper coil how it’s work when the magnet pass from the copper coil it’s produced fluxes current that current use the whole system of electrical work in scooter 🛵’ even the coil pass the high current to plug spark ⚡️ to burn 🔥 fuel’ it’s very simple and easy definition.. what amazing! Today everybody is copying each other experiences copied videos on TH-cam.. Durvesh yezdani’s
Yes its interesting stuff

Very good revue. I have the 2001 MK3 450. At present doing youtube video's of rebuilding the suspaension & brakes , with upgraded Brembo 4 pots at the front. I was lucky as I took a gamble on buying through the auction called Trade classics. I won for £9450.00 An amazing car with a huge portfolio including photo's of it being made in 2001. Looking forward to the Summer driving.. Thanks for sharing. Given you a sub. Steve.
