The Jaguar C-X75 was supposed to go into production as a hysterical mega-hybrid with gas turbines, but that was strangely abandoned. Still, the brand did not want to let the car disappear unnoticed: they used it as a chase car in the Bond movie. A Bad Guy named Mr. Hinx chases it through Rome, chasing James Bond's Aston Martin DB10.

According to Jaguars SVO boss John Edwards, these were basically 'spaceframes to WRC specifications', equipped with a supercharged V8 with dry-sump lubrication. Williams Advanced Engineering was responsible for building the cars. By the way, don't expect a perfect finish in the movie world such a thing is not necessary.
