TWR Supercat revealed as a £225k, limited-run super-GT with analogue appeal
British engineering firm TWR Engineering has revealed an outlandish, 600bhp reworking of the Jaguar XJS as its debut production model - complete with carbon bodywork, a supercharged V12 and a manual gearbox. The first project to be revealed by the Berkshire-based firm - a firm founded by the son of famed team boss and driver Tom Walkinshaw - sees the 50-year-old British coupé reimagined as a high-performance super-GT, aptly named the Supercat.
Where the XJR-S featured a three-speed automatic, the Supercat mates its V12 to a six-speed manual. The interior appears to feature redesigned bucket seats and instrument cutouts on both sides of the dashboard. TWR is set to fully reveal the cabin - described as “fundamentally re-imagined” - later this year, with the Supercat’s dynamic reveal slated for summer.
