Auction 22725:
Goodwood Revival
12 Sep 2015 13:30 BST
Chichester, Goodwood
The car offered here is a truly stunning and very rare Jaguar Mk1 built in 1996 by leading Jaguar motor sport specialist Guy Broad as a tribute to the late Mike Hawthorn, whose own much-modified Mk1 was destroyed in that fatal accident on the Guildford bypass. Hawthorn's car was registered 'VDU 881' so this one with its '882 VDU' registration seems particularly appropriate. It is based on a sound body, beautifully finished in correct British Racing Green, and incorporates up-rated mechanical components to replicate the Hawthorn car. Twin 2" SU HD8 carburettors are matched to gas-flowed inlet manifolds, while the engine itself features D-Type camshafts and a ported and flowed cylinder head. Exhaust gases are carried away via a Broadsport six-branch extractor manifold.
Power assisted rack-and-pinion steering affords improved controllability, aided by Koni dampers, Poly bushes all round and Vredestein Sprint Classic tyres, while four wheel disc brakes ensure that the car stops as well as it handles. The Hawthorn theme is finished off with a period badge bar, Lucas fog and spot lamps, stopwatches, period map light and period seatbelts, and correct tools. Hawthorn's Tourist Trophy Garage badge is a particularly nice touch.
'882 VDU' has been the subject of articles in many Jaguar magazines, copies of which are in the history file together with original sales brochures, and the car also comes with a current MoT certificate and V5C registration document. Able to hold its own in modern traffic and said to be a pleasure to drive, this up-rated Mk1 affords the prospect of comfortable travel 'four-up' in some style. It is perfect for attending events such as the Goodwood Revival, Festival of Speed, etc.

'882 VDU' has been the subject of articles in many Jaguar magazines, copies of which are in the history file together with original sales brochures, and the car also comes with a current MoT certificate and V5C registration document. Since the current vendor bought the car in 2015, it has been used sparingly and has benefitted from cylinder head and brake overhaul. Able to hold its own in modern traffic and said to be a pleasure to drive, this up-rated Mk1 affords the prospect of comfortable travel 'four-up' in some style.
