At the Geneva Motor Show, Jaguar Classic restored and modified this 1984 XJ6 for Iron Maiden drummer Nicko McBrain with modern technology and new design dashboard for the 50 years of the XJ model in 2018.
The project codenamed Greatest Hits is the collaboration between Nicko McBrain and experts at Jaguar Land Rover Classic Works in Coventry with Wayne Burgess (Jaguar Design studio director). 3,500 man hours of work for this piece of art.
Inside, we retrieve the Jaguar's classicism with a modern touch, with this leather seats in Pimento Red and black carpet. The dashboard was inspired by Nicko favourite snare drums with Dark Grey stained Sycamore veneers.
An another music touch, drum kit inspired pedals... Very nice interior.
For the engine, we have an 4.2 litre in-line 6 cylinder engine features three 2-inch SU carburettors from the E-type. And last but not least, for listen music, there is Alpine touch screen controls the 1100W sound system. Let's rock...
