Are you a) middle-aged, b) exceptionally wealthy and c) really, really bored? Well then step right this way, in the general direction of Series Elite" a new "one make racing series exclusively for the mature driver". Yes, really. The new discipline, which is exclusively for "high net worth individuals, with a minimum age of 50 years", will begin next May with a 12-race season at circuits in the UK and Europe. The cars? 20 lightly modified (the website says they"re rear-, rather than all-wheel drivebut this could just as easily be a mistake) Jaguar XE SV Project 8s, which we"re promised can be turned back into road-cars once drivers have had their fill. 20 cars is 15 per cent of the P8"s entire production run reckon Jag"s having trouble shifting its 600-odd bhp, super-saloons?
