OVERDUE! My SLS AMG Black Series is BACK IN ACTION
111,902
Published 2024-04-24
I remember filming the concept C-X75 at the Paris Motorshow back in 2010; initially suggested to have a turbine before swapping that for a hybrid powertrain - ahead of the holy trinity of the LaFerrari, 918 Spyder and P1. However, it never went into production and instead was revised to appear in the 2015 James Bond movie, Spectre.
Equipped with the popular Jaguar 5.0l supercharged V8, the movie cars were built to be functional and this particular example is chassis number 7. In the hands of Kaaimans, the work has now been done by Callum to make changes required to get it through IVA testing - including replacing the windows with approved glass, revising the suspension system, creating new mirrors to replace the previous foam ones, and numerous other bodywork changes to meet approvals.
It's not the only car that stands out at Bicester Heritage today though, with the most incredible McLaren line-up showcasing an F1, P1, Speedtail, Elva, Senna and Artura, plus Lotus bringing their Evija, Emira GT4 and Type 66, and so much more as we wander around.
I'm also taking a look at the line-up from The Little Car Company, where company founder Ben Hedley takes us on a walk around their offerings including the Bentley Blower Junior and the new Tamiya 'grown-up' RC car that's become real.
What a great day, what a stretch of the legs for the SLS Black Series, and thanks to Ben, plus the Bicester Motion team for their hospitality.
Thanks for watching, Tim

The SLS black series is one of if not my favourite car in the collection! So glad itās being taken out, nice to see it out and about
-
Another 4k video!! So glad to be able to watch in higher quality. Thank you Shmee
-
Why on earth didn't Jaguar release the C-X75 with a V8, it's gorgeous!
-
They shouldāve made this a thing it wouldāve been apart of the holy trinity making it holy quaternity

P1 00V! That car is such a legend, and in the best colour too!
-
I do wish more was said about the real CX-75 with the insane Williams 1.6L Twin charged hybrid engine that went like the proverbial off a shovel and sounded insane! The original concept was powered by a jet turbine as well.
-
Wow that SLS Black Series sounds amazing. Love the color, Tim you just have an incredible collection.
-
The SLS is just the perfect driving car. The paint and the wheels look so good for the lines of the car. The sound is just loud enough and doesnāt sound like it drones. Just an overall amazing car
-
The SLS is one of my dream cars. Always nice to see it out and about. This Mercedes is going to be very valuable one day. It's already moving up in price here in the States. Enjoy, I wish Jaguar could have made this awesome hybrid. It shows how valid Jaguar engineering would be today if it had more money like the VW group or Ferrari. Thanks Tim!.

CX75 was such an epic car. I was chatting to Dickie Stamford of Williams at Goodwood FOS who did much of the work to bring the car to life. 30 mins I chatted to Dickie about this. Awesome chap and excellent insight to this unicorn.

The jag cx-75 and XJ220 is just masterpiecesš¤©

Hi Tim , I'm very sorry to say . I have sat in that CX-75 at Silverstone Classic . Because the owner who I will not mention , said I could sit in it , and I was very honoured to be asked at the time . Simon

I don't care what people think! Jaguars are still some of the greatest cars! The new f-type is absolutely dope! Better than many porsches and such.... And i'm young....
-
Aside from the XJ220 found this concept one of the most beautiful Jaguars. Very sad Jaguar never made a production version of it!
-
Of all your cars Tim I absolutely adore your SLS Black the most.. awesome colour and awesome sound.
-
I love this car. Iām so sad it never went into full production
-
Jaguar really threw the bag not putting this gorgeous car into production.
-
Man I love that SLS.
-
Cx75 still basically looks fairly new 14 years later. Mad.
