1988 Jaguar XJR-9 Winners Le Mans

The Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust’s 1988 Le Mans winning XJR-9 will be returning to France this year as part of the Le Mans Centenary Celebrations.

The Automobile Club de l’Ouest (ACO), creator and organiser of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, are planning a number of events throughout 2023 to commemorate the centenary of the first Le Mans 24 Hour race in 1923 and have invited previous Le Mans winning cars to return.

Our 1988 race winning XJR-9 normally takes pride of place in the Jaguar Racing display in the main section of the British Motor Museum at Gaydon but will be taking to the Le Mans track once again, for parade laps on both Friday 9th and Saturday 10th June.

It will be on display on track for the rest of the weekend before being taken across to the Le Mans Museum where it will remain for the rest of June, returning home to Gaydon on 5th July.
