Description:
Jaguarsreturn to theWorld Sportscar Championshipcame good in1987with theXJR-8developed with Tom Walkinshaw Racing (TWR). It was Jaguarsfirstever World Championship. But four outright Le Mans wins between 1951 and 1957 were what had made the British automaker a household name. The return to racing in the 1980s had one main objective: another victory at the 24 Hours of Le Mans!
The XJR-9LM, a purpose-built derivative of the XJR-9, was the right tool for the task. In 1988, the Silk Cut TWR Jaguar team put an end to Porsches streak of seven consecutive victories and re-established Jaguar's reputation in an instant by taking the top honors. The "leaping cats" from Coventry, England were back with a vengeance!
Superlative detail and finish
Recreated from a digital master consisting of over 4,000 3D reference points, every aspect of the Jaguar XJR-9LM is precisely and faithfully recreated, accurate to within .006"! New technologies have been employed, breaking new ground in the die-cast world.
Each Jaguar XJR-9LM replica features a die-cast zinc metal body, tub and belly pan with opening doors and removable rear bodywork. This wonderful new replica is suspended on a functional race-tuned suspension and active steering. Rubber-like Dunlop slick tires with race-scrubbed surface adorn miniature wheels with machine turned valve stems.
The interior is purposeful, like the real Jaguar XJR-9LM, and as carefully replicated as any other area of this ferocious racer. The doors open in true-to-the-original butterfly motion on specially developed ball joints to reveal a simulated carbon-fiber seat shell with suede-like covering, fabric seatbelts with photo-etch metal fastening hardware, and acres of glassed carbon-fiber finish.
The thundering 7-liter V12 Jaguar engine is fully wired and plumbed, using genuine braided hoses, rubber hoses and simulated anodized high-pressure fittings. Furious details like photo-etch metal on the valve covers and individual fastening hardware on the exhaust headers add a crispness and realism that will make you think you can feel the heat rise off
this hot motor!
