Here's something you can't reproduce...
http://www.silverstoneauctions.com/2007-jaguar-xkrs-gt3
Registration: n/a
Chassis Number: GT3-004
Engine Number: Not Specified
Number of cylinders: V8
CC: 4200
Year of Manufacture: 2009
Estimate (£): 60,000 - 70,000
Sold for (£): Unsold
Between 2007 and 2009, Apex Motorsport were a factory approved entrant into the FIA GT3 European Sports Car series with the Jaguar XKR-S. Four cars were built in total, each one an evolution and improvement of its predecessor. Run by the very experienced and talented World Sports Car Racing expert, Richard Lloyd, the team were starting to become competitive and the car looked to be a potential winner when tragedy struck. The team were involved in an air disaster on the way to a test at Paul Ricard which sadly claimed the lives of all 5 on board, including Richard Lloyd, and their test driver, the very talented and much missed - David Leslie.
The team was destroyed, both emotionally and physically, and sadly the project was halted.
Jaguar enthusiast and sponsor, Stuart Scott, bought the first car which now resides in the Jaguar Heritage Museum, and this the last car - chassis no.4 which, in the past, has been raced by Mike Jordan, Neil Cunningham and Bradley Ellis. Infact, Phil Quaife and Stuart Hall qualified this car 2nd at the Silverstone round of the 2008 European GT championship, going on to finish 5th in the race.
Johnny Mowlem test drove the car for Motorsport magazine in 2010 and reflected on what a fantastic car it is and the inevitable 'what could have been' side to the Apex story.
Today, it still offers an exciting and competitive package with over 510 BHP on offer from the supercharged V8 4.2 engine (which has done very limited running), a 6 speed Hewland flat shift sequential gearbox, 3 way In-Trax bespoke dampers, AP 6 pot front calipers on 375mm discs and 4 pot rear calipers on 330mm discs, long range (108 ltr) quick fill ATL tank with refuelling, Motec dash and data-logging and a T45 structural roll cage all in a solid, strong but yet lightweight shell, (total car weighs 1240Kg) complete with inboard airjacks.
An ideal candidate for Britcar, GT Cup or Dutch Supercar Challenge, the car has shown its potential in the past and now just needs someone to enjoy it and win with it! At this price range (it was over double this price 12 months ago and cost over £400k when new!) it must surely now be a timely proposition for a serious competitor or collector?

^that has been for sale for a really long time. Hardly surprising really, because as awesome as it is, what are you going to do with it? Down here you could run it in GT class of Prod Sports and that's about it.The most dangerous risk of all - the risk of spending your life not doing what you want, on the bet you can buy yourself the freedom to do it later. - Randy Komisar.
