Pininfarina XJ220!

Commisioned by the sultan of Brunai, a completely re-designed XJ220 from italian design house pininfarina:

Nice!

The other custom bodied XJ220 I know of looks like a Transit Van!
I bet they upset a few Supercar drivers at the traffic lights with it

I don't know why he bothered with that, it's nowhere near as beautiful as the original

Yes, that's the original V12 4x4 concept. Even nicer (and larger) than what ended up in production.

It must be so good being able to do things like that.

I wonder when this was commissioned? You can see shades of Ferrari 550 in the bonnet and F50 at the rear.

The only sad thing about those pictures, is that you cant ever imagine Jag being in a position to make such a car again!

I think you have - quite literally - just about covered it.

He apparently already had 15 standard ones, so he probably just fancied a change.

I'm glad you said change. I'd hate him to think he'd improved it....

When you are the patron saint of the small supercar maker it is your duty to keep them busy in case they are not there one day when you need their services.

Without the Sultan many marques probably wouldn't exist today.
