Rally cars aren"t known for being convertible. To hell with tradition, then, because Jaguar has built two special F-Types with a suite of modifications turning them into stage monsters. The two cars get Jag"s 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine, here pumped up to 296bhp, along with upgraded brakes grooved discs and four-piston calipers front and back and proper competition suspension. The dampers are hand-built and offer three way adjustability, while the springs are softened up because rallying involves rather a lot of rough surfacing. There are also motorsport-spec wheels thrown in, along with a limited slip diff, the all-important bonnet-mounted light pod, fire extinguisher, FIA-spec roll cage, competition seats and a proper hydraulic handbrake.
