Chassis no. SAJJEAEX8AX220686; Engine no. 6A10113SB. Spa Silver over Smoke Grey leather. 3498/542hp, 5-speed, Pirelli P Zero tires, power windows, air conditioning, Alpine cassette stereo.

Evaluation: Showing just 6837 km, which are represented as actual. Major service in 2018, including fuel bladder replacement. Other than very minor scuffs on the edges of the rims and a small scratch on the right rear, there isn’t any wear to speak of.

Bottom Line: Bidding at RM and elsewhere in Monterey this year was exuberant to say the least, but it was arguably even more frenzied at RM’s Elkhart Collection sale last year, where this XJ220 sold for $483,500 and showed 15 fewer km on the odometer. Both are strong numbers for a well-kept XJ220 however. It previously sold for $206,700 in Auburn back in 2003 and then for just $154,000 at RM Arizona in 2009, but in the years since collectors have started to recognize the XJ220’s level of sophistication and its evolution from TWR’s successful racing endeavors.
