The TWR Supercat - TWR is back!

The TWR Supercat is one of the first creations in the new era of the iconic Tom Walkinshaw Racing brand.

The Supercat is a carbon fibre-bodied 660BHP V12 GT car designed and built to be used on the road and on the race track. In this video, John Marcar meets the team behind TWR, including John Kane, Fergus Walkinshaw and Khyzyl Saleem, who all share their input on this incredible new car.

My neighbour has a TWR s 1990. The sound of the engine is peachy

In these days of fanciful brand relaunches ( Jag) it's worth remembering that the British car industry has had and still has some of the best ideas in the world

Fabulous tribute to the TWR tradition with Jaguar.

Love this! Yes, I want one! What a great reincarnation of the 70's/80's XJS. Well done TWR

I was born in '71 so the wild Koenig specials and the like of the 80's still resonate with me. This is an interesting design, pretty wild and yet elegant. That's not an easy mix to pull off. The interior is gorgeous and who wouldn't love a supercharged V12? TWR seem to have a small but great team. I hope they sell all 88 examples. I'd certainly be a customer if I had the means!

Love the design! Perfection. This is what Jag should have done!!

This car is for the Individual, which is good enough for me....Show stopping looks, unique, exotic, sounds excellent, then we have 660 brake v12 Supercharged. Ye....Decent !

I’m really not sure about the body kit and selling 88 examples looks a tall order to me. Interior is gorgeous.

That's so strange I could swear in xjs has two Hood releases

[mrcgv]

It looks like it was designed by those who designed the Civic type R

[VBMichael_D]

This is how you make a flagship sports car with a MANUAL (and no F@#$@#$ V6 engine OR front wheel drive), Chevrolet, Lexus, Nissan, Cadillac, and Honda.

[Blasphemism]

The bulging creased fender treatment ruins this design. Ugh.

TWR SUPER LISTER SUPER COPY CAT
I just read the motorsport article !
The designer Khyzyl Saleem has obviously got an eye for taking someone else's > the man > ( Laurence Pearce's ) hard work and Genius and an iconic design and completely messing it up, it is so obvious that he has copied all the very best eye catching masculine details of the WP Automotive Lister XJS and then reproportioned them in such a comical awkward clownish way and then filled in the gaps with a lot of unproportional left over 1970's unwanted parts and even further made a complete mess of the remainder of the

Not digging the design but love that TWR is back.
