    These javas were gorgeous but the coupe never made it out, that was the time when the garage all but folded.

    Did Pininfarina build these cars from the bottom up? I find that hard to believe.

    I just went thru the list of cars you posted. Position # 1298 JAG XJ220 NONE 2. Could this be one of them?

    Let me say this in another way. The two cars were not included in the XJ220's production numbers. They were sent to Pininfarina long before their completion, no VINs or what so ever, most of the things got assembled outside the Jaguar factory.

    The list alone does nothing to prove your point. The car could have a VIN, it might not. There are 16 XJ220s listed!

    You certainly like shooting your sh*t on every forum possible. I read 'A lot of bull**** in that pseudo article.' on every message board around, but I think you have no basis to discredit *************, especially since we said the 'Sultan POSSIBLY sent one or two [xj220s] to Pininfarina's studio for a new body and interior'.

    But your english is terrible. "none chassis ever saw the XJ220 production line".

    Let's suppose this car has no VIN, maybe that's because Jaguar didn't want to be associated with it, maybe that's because it was made from pieces, maybe that's because it isn't an XJ220.

    Until Pininfarina, or someone close to the car reveal more detail it's a big guessing game.

    This pic surfaced on *************. I find it interesting because it appears to have been taken recently with a cell phone camera...

    I think it's an old pic. I found it together with some other pics. And I believe all pics came from the same magazine, allthough I've never found the article that they were taken from.

    I'm sorry, I should have been more clear. My garage-folder is full of pictures of dreamgarages (garages with ferrari's, lambo's, aston's, mclaren's, etc. in them). These pictures have nothing to do with Brunei, the Nazca was in that folder by accident (because I didn't knew it was the Sultan's garage).
    However, I also have quite a number of pictures in my Brunei-folder (200+). I'm currently working on making a gallery out of these on sc.net, so that everyone can find all the Brunei pictures at one place. This way people don't have to visit a 1000 forums anymore to see all the pics.

    They actually had a Ferrari 456 equipped with an infrared nightvision system, they could drive at night with no lights, it had a kind of screen on the windshield which would display the road very clearly.
