Furthermore, to accommodate the vital equipment in the XJR vehicles, the engineering teams removed the rear seats and fitted a special roll-cage along with an especially made housing to carry tools and supplies by the well-known British manufacturer Angloco. The additions include a foam misting cylinder, hydraulic pump and a motor.

This customization of the XJR vehicles will provide a wonderful solution to keep the high performance rates in every situation:  now, the XJR comes with a 5.0-liter V8 550 hp (404 kW)  supercharged petrol engine, that allows the vehicle to go from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 4.4 seconds. From this impressive start, the XJR can chase the top speed of 313 km/h (174 mph)

And the Jaguar RRVs for the Bloodhound SSC will be joined on the famous Goodwood Hill by the special F-Type Project 7, that comes with the incredible 340 hp (188 kW), 3.0-Liter Jaguar XE S, and the iconic  XJ13, Group 44 E-type, Long Nose D-type, TWR XJS and the Broadspeed XJ12C.
