The very rare Tornado Jag

Ebay item 160016057405
Anybody want to tell me more about these cars ? I only thought they were rumors, until I saw this Ebay advert. Anybody seen one in the flesh or driven one ? Was there any other versions too (say an earlier 'Harrier' version) ?
It looks like a very nice car, although it has suffered a HUGE depreciation in value from new !

I have driven one of these, not sure which one, but it was a bit of an animal at the time. Shame they only made two of them. Wonder what it will go for on E-bay. I heard a rumour that jaguar used borrow cars from Paramount, and see what tweeks they had done. I even remember seeing mods on Paramount cars, they some years later they creeped into production Jags.
We had a turbo technics XJR (XJ40) which is very similar, but the older model.
The Engine was a 4.0 twin turbo, uprated injectors, exhaust system + extras putting out about 380bhp, the engine was wonderful and it was very fast - unfortunately the body work was getting rough, and as a business vehicle it was a bit shabby. We considered putting the engine into our S2 Etype that needed engine work at the time, but the car went to a friend who uses it at weekends.
