Hasegawa 20800 - 1/24 Jaguar XJ-S H.E. TWR classic touring car kit  [HA-20800]

Hasegawa 1/24 Jaguar XJ-S H.E. TWR - classic touring car replica for display

The Hasegawa 20800 kit reproduces the TWR-prepared Jaguar XJ-S H.E. at 1/24 scale, offered as a plastic assembly kit for builders aiming to recreate period-correct race appearance.

The Jaguar XJ-S was launched as a grand tourer in the mid-1970s and served as the E-Type's successor. In the 1980s Tom Walkinshaw Racing adapted the XJ-S for touring and endurance events, updating aero and chassis elements for competition. Those TWR cars saw action in European races and international endurance events of the era.

Assembly notes and modeller guidance

Focus is placed on external accuracy to the TWR race spec, with body lines, aero pieces and era-appropriate wheels modelled to reflect the competition car. Builders should plan for trimming, seam filling and precise masking to achieve a quality finish.

Decals, paint and display approach

The subject relies on correct paint shades and decal work to convey the period livery accurately. The kit is intended for static display and supports weathering and presentation techniques favoured by collectors of historic race cars.
