I was ready to absolutely hate that, being a fanboy of the original... But I quite like it. Maybe get rid of the LED's at the front, but the circular rear lights suit it nicely.

I'm not usually a fan of blacked out headlights but I like them on it and the LED ones from a Ferrari 599 on the back

That looks absolutely fantastic. I think the shape is ageing very well.

That looks pretty cool. Most of these 'restyles' of classics are disastrous.

That looks really rather good.
I was somewhat sceptical, but it was a bit of a surprise!

I am really not sure of this one.First impressions are good and they have done a lovely job.........but have a good look at the design and its a bit like Mutton dressed as Lamb straight out of Max power,sort of thing you would see down Croydens Purley way on a Saturday Night.
The original is pure ,albeit with its faults,but this one doesnt do it for me.Maybe its an age thing.

Devalued in Europe and only saleable in the Middle East or Knightsbridge in the Summer.
I am sure the 220 could be substantially updated, perhaps improved but it would need to be more subtle, like a toned down X75 in my opinion.
If they wanted a Lamborghini, why not buy a Lamborghini.

I like the look of that but preferably in a nice bright colour or BRG.

I love the XJ220 and this is excellent work. Ahmed Dogan's getaway car perhaps?

100% certified supercar rear end.
