 | | With a 0-60mph time under 4 seconds and a top speed well in excess of 200mph, the XJ220 was quicker, sleeker and — at £403,000 - more expensive than any of its supposed rivals. |
 | | Ford took over Jaguar in 1989 and in January 1990, when the prestige market was riding the crest of a wave, £50,000 deposits were invited on a forthcoming supercar — originally intended to be a 4-wheel drive V12. |
 | | This suggested that by the time of delivery, scheduled for 1992, the car would carry a price tag of around £400,000. |
