There is an old mid engined Jaguar parked outside of our office, looks very
nice.

Anyone know what it is?

The only mid-engined car Jag have ever built was the XJ13. It was
obliterated in a testing crash, rebuilt, and is in the Jag Heritage
collection.

There are replicas, though.

Sorry, can't quite make it out from here...

How old?

XJ13? XJ220C?

Mmm. You're right. I'd forgotten about the 220.

It'd taken me a while, but I'd managed in the end... Hopefully, I can
repeat the trick soon.

If it was like this one, it was an XJ220

If it was like this one, it was a replica of an XJ13

It won't be an actual XJ13 because like the Highlander, there shall be
only one.

I don't know why anyone would want to forget it, it's still a stunning
car and it still has a few tricks up it's sleeve

XJ13 Replica - sounds spot on - green is too dark for the rebuilt
