Jaguar XJR9 7.L V12 Winner 1988 Daytona 24h in 1:18 scale
This is the Jaguar XJR9 7.L V12 Winner 1988 Daytona 24h in 1:18 scale by CMR.
In the 1988 24 Hours of Daytona, the Jaguar XJR-9, equipped with a powerful 7.0L V12 engine and bearing the iconic Castrol livery, clinched a remarkable victory with drivers Martin Brundle, Raul Boesel, and John Nielsen. This triumph was a significant milestone for Jaguar, showcasing the XJR-9's blend of raw power and reliability in one of America’s toughest endurance races. The 1988 season was particularly competitive, with Jaguar facing fierce rivalry from Porsche, making this win an important statement in the battle for endurance racing supremacy. The XJR-9's design, developed by Tom Walkinshaw Racing (TWR), was engineered for both speed and durability, essential for the grueling nature of Daytona’s high-speed oval and infield road course. This win at Daytona was also the first of Jaguar's iconic double victories in 1988, as the XJR-9 would later secure a legendary win at Le Mans, solidifying its place in racing history.
This model is hand painted and polished to a beautiful finish and has a sealed body. These diecast
models are exceptionally accurate of scale, shape and detail. Interior detail is hand assembled and easily
visible. Photo etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are often used for a most
authentic replication.
