Why this kit matters
The Jaguar XJ-S H.E. became one of the most successful touring cars of the mid-1980s under the leadership of Tom Walkinshaw Racing (TWR). At the 1985 James Hardie 1000 at Bathurst, drivers John Goss, Armin Hahne, and John Nielsen guided the powerful V12 Jaguar to victory, marking a significant achievement for the British manufacturer in Australian motorsport.
The Bathurst win helped establish Jaguar's reputation in international touring car competition and showcased the effectiveness of the TWR racing programme. The striking green and gold race livery remains one of the most recognisable designs from Group A touring car racing. This model allows enthusiasts to recreate an important chapter in motorsport history while adding a legendary race winner to their collection.
