I just came across a video in french where the guy is taking a video of a XJ40 shooting brake / station wagon / estate car.
I don't understand french so I have no clue what he is saying but the car looks pretty cool.
Were these a special custom coach work creation? I have never seen one before this.

 

 

I worked for Jaguar for 31.5 years (9/10th's of it in R&D) and a prototype 'shooting brake' was made for a show but never came to fruition until the X Type although a few aftermarket companies would 'cut & shut' your XJS for you. The 'Shooting Brake' name was always used as it denotes a much more bespoke Jaguar vehicle. Station wagon is for the hoi polloi ! :} LOL

 

This is an Humberstone Jaguar estate designed by Chris Humberstone for the Jaguar dealer Hatfield. I have read that they built three of them, two for their own use and one for a customer in the USA. Jaguar also built a prototype XJ40 estate which is still in their heritage collection but I prefer the lines of the Humberstone designed car. t seems more sleek.

 

The car on the video looks like one of the Humberstone cars? David Marks in Nottingham (U.K.) has one too. I have seen it out at a few shows.
