XJR-15 that won the Jaguar Intercontinental Challenge race at Monaco
1990 Jaguar XJR-15 by J.A. Ackley

The Jaguar XJR-15 is the first production car built entirely from carbon fiber. Of the 50 or so made, 16 were built specifically for the single-make Jaguar Intercontinental Challenge series. Of those, only one won the first race at Monaco. This is it.
Seasoned F1 driver Derek Warwick scored the victory with this car, besting the likes of David Brabham, Davy Jones and Juan Manuel Fangio II. As an aside, Warwick would win the 24 Hours of Le Mans the next year, racing a Peugeot.
The ad says it’s “road legal,” and the “only one known with 7 liters engine.” The standard XJR-15 came with a 6.0-liter V12.
