There's something quite unnerving seeing an old van driving that fast. ☺️

[@paulwilliamson3211]

White van man on steroids 👍 brilliant.

[@tacheovale]

Clearly you've never driven in the outside lane of the M1 then? No matter how fast you go, there's always an old van up your arse

[@thatprs59]

unfourtunatley driving it now is dangerous because it is just sitting in a barn and is undrivable but still road legal

I love how Jag and twr used a transit van as a test mule to be ultra stealth! I also love the fact this escaped the crusher as well as infor that's usually the fate of experimental devel vehicles!

Vaughn Sigal I think the host was looking for TWR JV6...not jaguar xj220 engine. Drivers seldom know shit about how vehicles work or what's in them.

[@SuperSuperDuperNice]

so what type of engine is in the van? and this doesn't have the original engine does it? and could you tell us about the engine?

It's says in the title, a Jaguar XJ220 engine :D

Sideburns are for aero. Induces turbulence, which disrupts any of that “sticky” boundary layer effect. Old tech, but still effective.

So I'm confused... If it's not a standard engine, what engine is it??

Tony So Yeah good idea, I'm still clueless.

A Yank here ...I suppose i never thought of it before , but , in a RHD vehicle are the pedals reversed as well ?
