Ronart Cars is a British sports car manufacturer and constructor of unique and bespoke sports racing cars. The company was founded in 1984 by Rona and Arthur Wolstenholme, based in Peterborough.
The W152 was the first car to be designed and produced by Ronart Cars and was launched in 1986 in a retro racing car style, The external exhaust system and "hump style" headrest are key design features of a car from that era. The original chassis was designed by Spyder Engineering, and uses a beck bone chassis. So, the chassis narrows in the centre, at the transmission tunnel and spreads out to all 4 corners. The MK 2 cars, produced since 1996 featured the chassis redesigned and built in-house. The W152 body has 11 panels with the centre section featuring a reinforced steel cage and welded roll over bar for safety and rigidity. The W152's mechanicals are from a Jaguar XJ from 1968-1986. There are three different engine options in a W152, the Jaguar XK6, AJ6 or V12. Any appropriate gearbox can be used but normally a manual. The W152, does not have any doors and in most cases no windscreen instead it uses two small Brooklands aero screens
The W152 was manufactured under licence by Vanwall for ten years, from 2004 until the factory closed in early 2014. Since then manufacturing has continued by Ronart. in Peterborough

The XJS was re-engineered and relaunched in 1991, when Jaguar were under the ownership of Ford, the name now becoming XJS rather than XJ-S. All XJS's from this time were referred to as facelift models, the rear buttress was retained but side windows appeared larger. The car was also given the new 4.0ltr AJ6 engine and in 1992 a Convertible was added to the range. The 5.3 V12 was increased to 6.0ltr in 1993
In April 1994, substantial revisions were made to the 4.0-litre AJ6 engine and it was given a new name of AJ16, now equipped with coil-on-plug ignition. In 1995, the final specification changes were made and the car was referred to as the Celebration model to celebrate the 60th year of Jaguar Cars.
The XJS was discontinued in 1996, after 21 years in production, superseded by the XK8.

The car was re-engineered in May 1991 and renamed XJS (instead of XJ-S). The rear side windows appeared enlarged (although the body glass aperture was actually the same size as the earlier car), and the buttresses stayed (although their appearance was minimised by the new side window treatment), as designer Geoff Lawson argued that they were part of the car's character. The car received a new 4.0-litre version of the AJ6. In 1992, a 4.0-litre convertible was added to the range. The V12's capacity was enlarged to 6.0 litres in May 1992 with an output of 304bhp. At the same time the car benefited from a revision to the rear brakes, they were now fitted with outboard rear disc brakes, instead of the more complicated inboard items on previous models.
In April 1994, substantial revisions were made to the 4.0-litre AJ6 engine which became the 4.0-litre AJ16 with coil-on-plug ignition. In 1995, the final specification changes were made and the car was referred to as the Celebration model to celebrate the 60th year of the Jaguar company. Celebration cars feature diamond turned wheels, Jaguar embossed seats and a wooden steering wheel.
The XJS was discontinued in 1996, after 21 years in production. It was replaced by the XK8.

With an XJ40 replacement still years away, Jaguar urgently needed to revamp the XJ range and took on a rather retro look which proved popular in the important German and American markets. The X300 was based on the XJ 81 chassis designed by Geoff Lawson and was launched in 1995. The centre section was shared with the Mark 2 (XJ40/XJ81) while the traditional fluted bonnet and four head lamps were revived.The front and rear wings, bumpers and bot lid were also redesigned. The 3.2 and 4.0 AJ6 engines remained but were mildly revised to achieve a boost in power and refinement
The X300 series was available in several trim levels.
The XJ6 formed the base model featuring either the 3.2 or 4 litre engines aluminium alloy wheels, leather upholstery, and air conditioning were all extra-cost options.
The Sovereign model also used the AJ16 engine (in either 3.2 L or 4.0 L form), and came equipped with luxury features as standard The exterior of the Sovereign was adorned with chromed trim in various locations: on the radiator grille, rear light cluster surrounds, windscreen and rear window surrounds, rain gutters, window frames, and boot-lid plinth.
The AJ Sport was aimed at younger drivers, with wider 8-inch wheels, revised seats, and stiffer suspension. The Sport kept the matte-black window surrounds from the base model, and is identified by "Sport" badges on the B-pillars and "XJ Sport" badging on the rear. The sports suspension (along with the wider wheels) were also available as an option on other models
The Executive model was introduced for the 1997 model year and featured leather trim, a wood/leather steering wheel, wide wheels (similar to the "Sport" model), and air conditioning.
The X330 LWB (Long Wheelbase) introduced in 1995 as a long wheelbase version of the body shell adding 6 inches for rear seat occupants and an extra inch of headroom. This body style was available for all of the "classic" models (XJ, Sovereign, XJ12) but not the "sport" models (XJ Sport, XJR). There were two X330 variants, one with five seats and one with four, which featured a raised centre console between the two adjustable rear seats. Internally, Jaguar referred to the long wheel base version as the X330 Majestic
The XJR (X308) introduced as a high-performance sport model, and it was Jaguar's first-ever supercharged road car (and only the second Jaguar road car to use forced induction, after the turbocharged Jaguar XJ220.) The output of the six-cylinder AJ16 engine was increased to 326 bhp with the use of an Eaton M90 supercharger and an air-water intercooler

Badged as XJ6 or Sovereign the term Project XJ40 was used by Jaguar, during the 1970's developement stages. There were also Daimler, Sport, Majestic, Gold and a TWR tuned XJR variants available during the models lifetime as well as a the rare twin turbocharged Chasseur. All vehicles were fitted with variants of the new Jaguar AJ6 straight six engine initially as a 2.9 ltr. SOHC or a 3.6 ltr S6 DOHC.
Amongst changes for the 1989-90 model year these engine sizes were increased the 2.9 becoming 3.2 and the 3.6 becoming 4.0 ltr. Together with the replacement of the electronic dashboard instrumentation, replaced by an analogue system. Further revisions were made for the 1992-93 season including a passenger air bag unfortunately located in the position of the passenger glove box, meaning late models had to do without the glove box
Transmission was supplied by a four speed ZF Automatic manually governed in the 2.9, 3.2 and 3.6 but governed by the ECU in the 4.0 ltr. A five speed Gertag manual box was also available.
For the 1993 season Jaguar produced a 6.0ltr V12 XJ40 which replaced the series 3 XJ12 which was essentially a bored out 5.3ltr. The XJ40 continued production until 1994 when it was replaced by the X300 series
This car served from new as the Fire Tender car at Donington Park race circuit

The XJ40 series represented a huge investment of around £ 200 million against the £ 80 million initially approved.
Designed to replace the Series III, although the two models were both produced until 1992. Initially two engines were offered, 2.9 and 3.6 litre versions of the AJ6 six cylinder engine, in 1990 these were increased to 3.2 and 4.0ltr. In 1993, the XJ12 and Daimler Double Six (both equipped with the Jaguar V12 engine) were added to the available models.
The 3.6 (221bhp) and 4 litre (235bhp) models (Daimler did not use the 2.9 litre) came equipped with significantly more features than the base XJ6. Included was air conditioning, headlamp washers, a six-speaker sound system, rear adjustable suspension, and ABS. The headlamps fitted were the rectangular single units. The window frames were chrome-plated.
The Daimler-branded cars represented the highest trim level, and were sold as their Vanden Plas model by Jaguar dealers in the United States. Like the Sovereign, it was fitted with the single rectangular headlamps. Cosmetically, it differed from other models with its fluted radiator grille surround, boot-lid plinth and detail finishes. A Daimler interior features fold-out picnic tables for the rear passengers and a 2-passenger rear seat versus the 'flat', 3-passenger item on the Jaguars.

Debuted in 1983 the new Cabriolet version of the XJ series. The rear jump seats had been eliminated making it a pure two seater. The XJ-SC was not a full convertible having a non removable centre targa structure and fixed cant rails above the doors. The rear quarter windows remained. Powered by the new AJ6 engine in the XJS chassis it came with a 5 speed Gertag manual box for the six cylinder cars. The model was not officially exported to the US.

With an XJ40 replacement still years away, Jaguar urgently needed to revamp the XJ range and took on a rather retro look which proved popular in the important German and American markets. The X300 was based on the XJ 81 chassis designed by Geoff Lawson and was launched in 1995. The centre section was shared with the Mark 2 (XJ40/XJ81) while the traditional fluted bonnet and four head lamps were revived.The front and rear wings, bumpers and bot lid were also redesigned. The 3.2 and 4.0 AJ6 engines remained but were mildly revised to achieve a boost in power and refinement.
The long wheelbase version of the X300 series was launched in 1995, the revision included changes to the rear suspension that allowed adjustment of toe-in., the long wheel base version of the body shell added an extra 6 inches for rear seat occupants and an extra inch of headroom. This body style was available for all of the "classic" models (XJ, Sovereign, XJ12) but not the "sport" models (XJ Sport, XJR). There were two X330 variants, one with five seats and one with four, which featured a raised centre console between the two adjustable rear seats. nternally, Jaguar referred to the long wheel base version as the X330 Majestic, although unlike the XJ40 they were never badged as such. The X330 bodies were built on the standard production line, whereas the XJ40 Majestic started as a SWB body which was then taken away and stretched by Project Aerospace in Coventry, before being returned and fitted out by Jaguar Special Vehicle Operations, meaning that the X330 carried a much smaller price premium over the standard models. The daimler name was applied to the highest trim level of the X300 cars, and featured all the chrome brightwork found on the Sovereign cars, plus chromed doors mirrors, chromed door handles, and a fluted radiator grille surround. The Daimler Six model was equipped with the AJ16 engine, and the Daimler Double Six with the V12.
This particular car was built as a one off, by Jaguar’s Special Vehicle Operations department (SVO), to demonstrate a possible flagship vehicle for the company. The car was stretched by eight inches in the front doors, and five inches in the rear doors, with the roof being approximately two inches higher in the crown area, to maintain the proportions of the car. Mechanically, the car was identical to the standard Daimler Six saloon with the 4 litre engine

The Jaguar XJ-S (later called XJS) is a luxury grand tourer manufactured and marketed by British car manufacturer Jaguar Cars from 1975 to 1996, in coupé, fixed-profile and full convertible bodystyles. There were three distinct iterations, with a final production total of 115,413 units over 20 years and seven months.
Originally developed using the platform of the then current William Heynes designed XJ saloon.
n 1983, the new 3.6-litre Jaguar AJ6 straight-six (I6) engine was introduced along with a new convertible model called the XJ-SC. The coupé's rather small rear seats were removed in order to make space for the removable soft top, making it a 2-seat car. The XJ-SC was not a full convertible but was a fixed profile variant with a non-removable centre targa-type structure and fixed cant rails above the doors and fixed rear quarter windows. The six-cylinder cars can be identified by a raised bonnet center section.
The two-seat XJ-SC targa-type model, never a great success in the marketplace, was replaced by a two-seat full convertible in 1988.

Designed by George Thomson and Roger Zrimec under Doug Thorpe, the project XJ40 was developed at a cost of £80 million the car was designed in house after a Pininfarina design was rejected. It was the last car to be developed independently by Jaguar (prior to its takeover by Ford), and also the last to have been developed largely within the lifetime of the company's founder Sir William Lyons, who died shortly before its release. After very considerable delays the car was finally released in 1986, the controversial square headlights in all but the entry level cars . In 1989 under Ford control the model was revised. available with a choice of two variants of the straight-six AJ6 powerplant - the 2.9-litre SOHC unit (a derivative of Jaguar's legendary V12) or the 3.6-litre DOHC engine. By 1989, Jaguar had been bought by Ford who changed the engine offerings to a 3.2-litre DOHC, a 4.0-litre DOHC one, or the 6.0-litre Jaguar V12 (introduced December 1992 and said to offer c.310bhp with the four-speed automatic 'J-gate' transmission. They also replaced the often unreliable digital dashboard with conventional analogue instruments. As with previous generations of the XJ6, the most opulent versions carried the Sovereign badge.
The XJ12 was given the model code XJ81 and was debuted at the 1993 Amsterdam Motor Show. The XJ40 bodyshell was allegedly engineered to prevent fitting V-configuration engines, in particular the Rover V8, which British Leyland management had desired; this delayed the introduction of the V12-powered XJ12 until 1993 as the front structure of the XJ40 had to be extensively redesigned. Powered by a 6.0-litre version of the Jaguar V12 engine mated to a GM 4L80E 4-speed automatic gearbox. It could be identified by the XJ12 or Double Six badge on the rear and a V12 emblem on the glovebox. The XJ12 used the quad round headlamps, black radiator grille vanes, and a gold growler badge on the radiator grille top, while the Daimler received the rectangular headlamps. Early cars used stainless steel window frames, on later cars they were changed to black

Badged as XJ6 or Sovereign the term Project XJ40 was used by Jaguar, during the 1970's developement stages. There were also Daimler, Sport, Majestic, Gold and a TWR tuned XJR variants available during the models lifetime as well as a the rare twin turbocharged Chasseur. All vehicles were fitted with variants of the new Jaguar AJ6 straight six engine initially as a 2.9 ltr. SOHC or a 3.6 ltr S6 DOHC.
Amongst changes for the 1989-90 model year these engine sizes were increased the 2.9 becoming 3.2 and the 3.6 becoming 4.0 ltr. Together with the replacement of the electronic dashboard instrumentation, replaced by an analogue system.

The XJS first appeared in 1977 with a choice of manual or automatic transmissions, but the manual was soon dropped. Initially the car was only available as a Coupe.
From July 1980, the XJ-S became the XJS-HE models received the new High-Efficiency engine for much better economy which included the Fire Ball combustion chamber designed by Swiss Engineer Michael May, as a by-product, power was increased to 220 kW (295 hp) or 196 kW (263 hp) in North America. At the same time, the XJS-HE received changes to its exterior and interior (Body coloured trunk plinth in place of the standard previous black, new five-spoke alloy wheels, chrome inserts on the upper part of the bumpers, Burled Elm wood inserts on dashboard and door cappings). In 1982, the new V12 XJS-HE won first and second at the RAC Tourist Trophy race at Silverstone.
In 1983, the new 3.6-litre Jaguar AJ6 straight-six (I6) engine was introduced Between 1983 and 1987, the six-cylinder-engined cars were only available with a five-speed manual transmission (Getrag 265), with a four-speed automatic (ZF 4HP22) offered from 1987 onwards (along with improved fuel injection as used on the XJ40). A V12 powered XJ-SC was introduced in 1985. The two-seat XJ-SC targa-type model, never a great success in the marketplace, was replaced by a two-seat full convertible in 1988
Also new for 1983 was the XJ-SC which was introduced alongside the convertible. In all 5013 XJ-SC Cabriolets were built. These cars were different in that they had a Targa/Convertible body style with removable Targa panels over the two seater passenger compartment, similar to T-tops, plus a fabric rear section including the rear window; there was an optional hard top for the rear section. Approximately 1598 Right Hand Drive and 3416 Left Hand Drive cars built. The coupé's rather small rear seats were removed in order to make space for the removable soft top, making it a 2-seat car. The XJ-SC was not a full convertible but was a fixed profile variant with a non-removable centre targa-type structure, fixed cant rails above the doors, and fixed rear quarter windows. The six-cylinder cars can be identified by a raised bonnet centre section. The 3.6 litre was only available during the 1983-85, though in V12 form it remained available through 1988.

Badged as XJ6 or Sovereign the term Project XJ40 was used by Jaguar, during the 1970's developement stages. There were also Daimler, Sport, Majestic, Gold and a TWR tuned XJR variants available during the models lifetime as well as a the rare twin turbocharged Chasseur. All vehicles were fitted with variants of the new Jaguar AJ6 straight six engine initially as a 2.9 ltr. SOHC or a 3.6 ltr S6 DOHC.
Amongst changes for the 1989-90 model year these engine sizes were increased the 2.9 becoming 3.2 and the 3.6 becoming 4.0 ltr. Together with the replacement of the electronic dashboard instrumentation, replaced by an analogue system. Further revisions were made for the 1992-93 season including a passenger air bag unfortunately located in the position of the passenger glove box, meaning late models had to do without the glove box
Transmission was supplied by a four speed ZF Automatic manually governed in the 2.9, 3.2 and 3.6 but governed by the ECU in the 4.0 ltr. A five speed Gertag manual box was also available.

The third and final Series XJS was launched under Fords ownership of Jaguar in 1991. For the third series the hyphen was dropped from the model name (XJ-S). The rear side windows appeared enlarged despite having identical glass apertures as the earlier cars, and the buttresses remained, minimised by the new side window trim.The car received a new 4.0-litre version of the AJ6 straight-six engine. In 1992, a convertible model having the same engine was added to the range. The V12 engine's capacity was enlarged to 6.0 litres in May 1992 increasing power to 304bhp.and the cars recieved more aerodynamic bumpers. Outboard rear brakes replaced the more complicated inboard brakes and with the introduction of the 6 litre V12 the transmission was strengthened to a GM 4L80E with a fourth-gear overdrive, whilst the automatic 4.0-litre models continued with the electronic F4HP24E transmission. In April 1994, substantial revisions were made to the 4.0-litre AJ6 engine and it was given a new name of AJ16, now equipped with coil-on-plug ignition. In 1995, the final specification changes were made and the car was referred to as the Celebration model to celebrate the 60th year of Jaguar Cars.

This car was built towards the end of Cabriolet production, and was originally the personal car of Diana, Princess of Wales. Although the Cabriolet was normally offered only as a two-seater, this car was specially fitted with rear seats for the young Princes William and Harry.
The Princess used this car from 1987 to 1991, and it was then acquired by the Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust in return for a contribution to her charity.
In 1983 the new straight six AJ6 engine debuted as well as a new Cabriolet version of the XJS Coupe. The XJ-SC was not a full Convertible having a non removable centre targa top structure and fixed cant rails above the doors and the rear quarter windows remained. Originally only available with five speed manual transmission an Automatic option becoming available from 1987. The 3.6 was joined by a V12 5.3 version in 1985.
The car was replaced by an official full convertible in 1988, although for two years an Ohio based coach building company Hess and Eisenhardt had built approximately 893 cars under contract to Jaguar.

The car was re-engineered in May 1991 and renamed XJS (instead of XJ-S). The rear side windows appeared enlarged (although the body glass aperture was actually the same size as the earlier car), and the buttresses stayed (although their appearance was minimised by the new side window treatment), as designer Geoff Lawson argued that they were part of the car's character. The car received a new 4.0-litre version of the AJ6. In 1992, a 4.0-litre convertible was added to the range. The V12's capacity was enlarged to 6.0 litres in May 1992 with an output of 304bhp. At the same time the car benefited from a revision to the rear brakes, they were now fitted with outboard rear disc brakes, instead of the more complicated inboard items on previous models.
In April 1994, substantial revisions were made to the 4.0-litre AJ6 engine which became the 4.0-litre AJ16 with coil-on-plug ignition. In 1995, the final specification changes were made and the car was referred to as the Celebration model to celebrate the 60th year of the Jaguar company. Celebration cars feature diamond turned wheels, Jaguar embossed seats and a wooden steering wheel.

With an XJ40 replacement still years away, Jaguar urgently needed to revamp the XJ range and took on a rather retro look which proved popular in the important German and American markets. The X300 was based on the XJ 81 chassis designed by Geoff Lawson and was launched in 1995. The centre section was shared with the Mark 2 (XJ40/XJ81) while the traditional fluted bonnet and four head lamps were revived.The front and rear wings, bumpers and bot lid were also redesigned. The 3.2 and 4.0 AJ6 engines remained but were mildly revised to achieve a boost in power and refinement
The X300 series was available in several trim levels.
The XJ6 formed the base model featuring either the 3.2 or 4 litre engines aluminium alloy wheels, leather upholstery, and air conditioning were all extra-cost options.
The Sovereign model also used the AJ16 engine (in either 3.2 L or 4.0 L form), and came equipped with luxury features as standard The exterior of the Sovereign was adorned with chromed trim in various locations: on the radiator grille, rear light cluster surrounds, windscreen and rear window surrounds, rain gutters, window frames, and boot-lid plinth.
The AJ Sport was aimed at younger drivers, with wider 8-inch wheels, revised seats, and stiffer suspension. The Sport kept the matte-black window surrounds from the base model, and is identified by "Sport" badges on the B-pillars and "XJ Sport" badging on the rear. The sports suspension (along with the wider wheels) were also available as an option on other models
The Executive model was introduced for the 1997 model year and featured leather trim, a wood/leather steering wheel, wide wheels (similar to the "Sport" model), and air conditioning.
The X330 LWB (Long Wheelbase) introduced in 1995 as a long wheelbase version of the body shell adding 6 inches for rear seat occupants and an extra inch of headroom. This body style was available for all of the "classic" models (XJ, Sovereign, XJ12) but not the "sport" models (XJ Sport, XJR). There were two X330 variants, one with five seats and one with four, which featured a raised centre console between the two adjustable rear seats. Internally, Jaguar referred to the long wheel base version as the X330 Majestic
The XJR (X308) introduced as a high-performance sport model, and it was Jaguar's first-ever supercharged road car (and only the second Jaguar road car to use forced induction, after the turbocharged Jaguar XJ220.) The output of the six-cylinder AJ16 engine was increased to 326 bhp with the use of an Eaton M90 supercharger and an air-water intercooler
