Jaguar XJ220 Reimagined as Modern MasterpieceCallum DesignsIan Callum, the legendary designer behind such works of art as the Aston Martin DB7 and the Jaguar F-type, just revealed his latest masterpieces.Callum Designs, Ian Callum's personal design house, revealed the first few photos of its modern reimagining of the Jaguar XJ220 and its racing companion, the XJ220-C.Callum Designs describes the projects as both a concept and a design study, so not a full production model, though a large enough pile of cash could probably change that.Remember the Jaguar XJ220? That darling little thing was developed by Jaguar and TWR and topped out at 217 mph, making it the fastest production car in the world at the time. Turns out the designer, Ian Callum, remembers it. On the eve of the XJ220's 35th anniversary, the renowned designer revealed his modern rendition of the supercar through his eponymously named studio.Callum DesignsSo far, only the side profile and rear three-quarters have been shown, but they reveal a few key changes, along with some striking similarities. For starters, the iconic egg-shaped window cutouts are back, but the rear fenders have been flattened compared with the original's more fluid shape. The side vents and the profile on Callum's new XJ220 are reminiscent of the Jaguar CX-75 concept that he penned back in 2010, though that car sported a prominent S-duct on the hood.Callum DesignsNot to be overshadowed by himself, Callum revealed his own recreation of the XJ220-C, designed to compete in the GT class of racing. Called the XJ220 GT1, Callum's racing version adds a front splitter and a prominent rear wing to the design. Like with his reimagination of the road-going car, Callum's XJ220 GT1 tricks the eye into thinking the whole thing was carved from a single piece of metal. Each sheet of bodywork blends into the next with the spoiler's uprights directly sprouting from the rear haunches.AdvertisementAdvertisementCallum Designs describes the two models as "portfolio projects," or more simply as concept cars. While that means there's currently no production intent, the design studio hinted that an especially motivated or appropriately wealthy client could tip the scales toward a one-off being built.
