Default Callum mk2

Some one recently posted a picture of a mk2 that had been modified by CMC. The story is published in this months Jaguar enthusiasts mag. It appears to be a one off, made to the design of Ian Cullum. There is no indication that it is to be made in any numbers. It is powered by an XK twin cam, twin SU, uprated to 4.3 ltr mated to a 5 speed manual.It has uprated front brakes mated to a unique rear suspension already under patent to CMC. It is 30mm lower on 17" rims.The front subframe is repositioned to improve anti dive characteristics. CMC stated that 'To be chosen by Ian to work with him is a testamant to the skills and passion that exists within our industry and is something that CMC are immensely proud of '. The vehicle seems to as per photograph as seen in earlier thread.

£315K translates to just over $500K at todays exchange rate. Plus tax of course (15% in the UK). Maybe I could get one for the wife too???
