The last time we saw<\/a> this unique Jaguar XJ sedan it was in Poland. Now it is back and for sale in Norway<\/a>. The classic British car is powered by a twin-turbo Toyota 1JZ inline-six and JZZ30 five-speed manual transmission. When the car was in Poland it had a single Holset turbocharger making 493 hp (500 PS). However the 1JZ was converted to a twin-turbo system with factory turbochargers making 313 hp (230 kW). Presumably this was done to meet Norwegian Public Roads Administration (Vegvesen) approval. The car rides on BBS 17-inch wheels with Nankang racing slicks. <\/p>\n
