The Jaguar XK8 (project code X100) is a grand tourer launched by Jaguar Cars in 1996, and was the first generation of a new XK series. The XK8 was available in two-door coupé or two-door convertible body styles with the new 4.0-litre Jaguar AJ-V8 engine. In 1998, the XKR was introduced with a supercharged version of the engine. In 2003, the ...
Airfix produced a 1/32 scale plastic kit of the 420 during the car's production run in 1968, which was reissued in 2021. MPC models released the Airfix 1/32 scale plastic kit of the 420 during the 1960s / early 1970's, kit No. 1006-100; Neo Scale Models currently produce a 1:43 resin moulded model of the 420 and also a Sovereign version.

The AJ126 engine is equipped with an Eaton TVS Roots-type supercharger. Specifically a 1.3L Eaton TVS R1320, mounted in the engine’s “vee” and is known for its compact design, efficiency, and ability to deliver smooth, immediate power. Jaguar has since replaced the AJ-126 with an all new Ingenium turbocharged inline-6 engine.
A centrifugal supercharger is a specialized type of supercharger that makes use of centrifugal force in order to increase the manifold air pressure, MAP. An increased MAP allows the engine to burn more fuel, which results in an increased power output.
A Jaguar XJ 2.7-litre turbo diesel V6, the XJ's basic engine in many markets. A Jaguar XJ8 Super V8 at the 2009 Washington, D.C., Auto Show. The Super V8 represented the XJ's most powerful engine.

One of the last designs advertised by Paul Banham conversions was a replica of the Jaguar XK120 convertible, and like the Banham Mini Roadster this was a not sold as a kit but instead as a coach built vehicle. It was produced using (at the time) fairly modern 1990s BMW parts, but looked like an original XK120 on the outside.
A mechanically driven supercharger offers exceptional response and low-rpm performance, as it does not rely on pressurization of the exhaust manifold (assuming that it is a positive-displacement design, such as a Roots-type or twin-screw, as opposed to a centrifugal supercharger, which does not provide substantial boost in the lower rpm range), but is less efficient than a turbocharger due to ...
