Jaguar has just announced the latest SVO collector’s edition car ­­­– The XE Project 8.

Its limited run predecessor, the F-Type Project 7, seemed little more than a visual homage to Jaguar’s legendary D-Type. Sure, it had a little performance boost, but nothing out of this world.

This is where the XE Project 8 differs. Not only does it get a more intimidating stance, the numbers are quite frankly terrifying in comparison to the car it’s based on. Its V8 produces a whopping 600bhp that can take the Project 8 up to 200mph. However, this crazy car comes with a crazy price to match – £150,000 to be exact – so what does that kind of money get you?

0-60mph in 3.3 seconds
