RE: Jaguar XJ220 S: You Know You Want To
Discussion
I'm not sure that this is an original "S".
The yellow "S" was registered "M1 TWR" and features in this Clarkson video:

That one has four point harnesses and what appears to be a suede steering wheel. The car in the advert appears to have conventional seatbelts and a plastic steering wheel (although I accept these could have been changed). Perhaps the vendor can confirm if this is "M1 TWR"?

Clarkson had a drive about 100 years ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wekbxaQXz50

I was told a story of a yellow XJ220.
Apparently the owner of a silver XJ220 took the car to Don Laws along with a picture of his yellow helicopter. He asked for the car to be repainted to match the colour of his helicopter. However, when it was done he decided he did not like the colour after all and sold the car.
I am not sure if the story is true or not but as yellow is not a launch colour of the XJ220 I presume it would have been painted at some point.
