JAGUAR 420G TEST DRIVE with the JAGUAR DRIVERS' CLUB
This video was originally presented in the on-line edition of Jaguar Driver - Jaguar Driver Enhanced - as part of the 2011 Leviathan Special Edition in May.
Here, we test the Jaguar Heritage 420G, which forms part of the trust's collection. We are grateful to Jaguar Heritage for their assistance in making this video.
Made as part of the Leviathan campaign to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the Mark 10 and 420G, this resulted in 27 of these cars attending our National Day at Rockingham Castle on August 7th, almost certainly a record showing.
It's a great time to join the Jaguar Drivers' Club. Membership from just £30 per annum.
For information on the Jaguar Drivers' Club, go to: www.jaguardriver.co.uk
We've been looking after the needs of Jaguar owners since 1956.
Look out for our other Jaguar movies.
Do please leave some comments on the video or the event if you have time - thank you.

Beacham Jaguar Mk II
"A Mk II Jaguar, on chrome wire wheels, is a favourite of many classic car lovers. But this is no ordinary Mk II. Beacham™ Jaguar has created a Mk II-bodied XJR - thunderous supercharged V8 and all. It's an exquisite work of art."
SPECIFICATIONS
- Modern Jaguar V8 4.0-litre engines / matching transmission
- Supercharged 370bhp / Normally-aspirated 290bhp
- Air Conditioning / Total Climate Control
- Air Bags (SRS)
- ABS, Traction Control and Anti-Dive System
- Premium Jaguar Audio (Multi-CD, AM/FM, Cassette)
- Full Power Equipment: Power Windows, Wheel Adjustment, Seats, Mirrors, (with Memory function), Remote Locking, etc.
- Power-operated Sunroof
- Available integrated GPS
The Mk II Jaguar was perhaps the world's first luxury/performance sedan. Fitted with 4 doors and with room for a family, the Mk II soon became the transport of choice for gangsters and police departments alike in its native Britain, as well as the unbeatable champion in UK and European sedan racing.
Beacham™ Jaguar made its early reputation as world-class restorers of these cars, gradually upgrading them with the more modern technology of newer Jaguars. Indeed the initial development on the Supercharged V8 cars was carried out using the Mk II base units. To date more than 200 Mk IIs have been delivered to customers by the company.
The Mk II is a timeless classic - its looks are totally unconventional. It has a unique shape that owes nothing to anything else - except the Mark I. It is a mix of traditions with its vertical oval grille, rounded lines, and a clubhouse interior that could only be British.
Gorgeous in the 1960s, still gorgeous today. So the notion of stuffing a 4.0 litre, supercharged XJR engine and drivetrain under the elegant coachwork of a classic Mk II Jaguar seems like the stuff of dreams.
Introducing the Beacham™ MkII
"You have to come to grips with this car emotionally. It may look "old" but it's been re-engineered, re-developed and completely rebuilt so that it is, to all intents and purposes, new."
Externally it looks very familiar, the only real giveaways for the sharp-eyed are the louvres from the XKR sports car in the bonnet, the air scoops under the front bumper, and the bigger Jaguar competition tires and chrome wire wheels. However it is beneath the skin, and inside the cabin where the most obvious visual changes are to be found. Under the bonnet the Beacham™ Mk II is crammed full of technology: ABS brakes, traction control, anti-dive suspension geometry and more.
But it is the interior where the achievement really hits home. Trimmed in supple new leather, the modern seats have all the power controls from the current Jaguar. Included is a full complement of comfort and safety systems: Power Windows and Locking of course; Power-adjustable Steering Wheel, Side Mirrors, all with Memory Function; Climate Control and a Power-operated Sunroof of course, even the SRS/Airbag Systems. Topped off with a premium sound system and GPS, all is joy set into a bespoke polished wood veneer dash.
The result is a revelation to drive.
Yes, the Beacham™ Mk II is fast, very: 0-60mph in around six seconds fast. Yes, it steers, handles and drives extraordinarily well. Yes, the car has been re-engineered from the wheels up and the workmanship is exceptional. Yes, if you put preconceived notions aside and approach the car with pragmatism, you can successfully merge today's technology, electronics and trim with 1960s styling.
The integration of the mechanical components has to be considered a remarkable engineering feat. The quality of workmanship is stunning, with a level of fit and finish well beyond that of most new cars - it is, after all, a thoroughly handbuilt vehicle. Close the doors and they close easily, but firmly - that's another advancement, modern air-filled, hollow door seals with holes to let the compressed air out. A small detail but which adds to the modern feel of the car.
But the real delight is supplied when the throttle pedal is introduced to the floor. It's easy to drive, fast, flexible and comfortable.
"The Beacham™ Mk II is a brand new car with impeccable breeding - and with performance to match."

MK2 Jaguar a brief look
A quick look at my classic 3.4 MK2 Jaguar car, as I take it out for a jaunt.
1968 Jaguar Mk2 340 M/OD
Owned since 1980, this car has been maintained since new and is not "restored". Have done some upgrades over the years -wire wheels, cut down rear spats,uprated springs/willwood brakes/Koni's, and a retrim in leather (back in 1982). I am in the process of making a Walnut burl Derrington steering wheel for it!
