If you should see a man walking down a crowded street talking aloud to himself, don't run in the opposite direction, but run towards him, because he's a poet. You have nothing to fear from the poet - but the truth.

if they will be built according the original specs, they will be about 10 seconds slower on the Goodwood track than the original, but tweaked, models. Maybe Jaguar should make an Adrian Newey version available too...

Interesting
A rather cynical exercise in my jaded opinion.
Aston Martin did this several years ago with a small run of Zagato GT4 'unused' chassis numbers, and Shelby did the same with Cobra numbers that were never used.
Unfortunately, as Jaguar are not the real deal any-more, these 'authentic' lightweights are really just replicas.

This is really interesting. Are they hand building the engines as well or have they sourced them from previous cars? If they hand build then potentially they could inject a little bit of modern technology and the new cars might be faster
