The ManicSlot Mini Review

Strengths:

  • Famous Silk Cut livery, (collectible slot)
  • Limited edition Slot.it 'Le Mans Winners'
  • Excellent engineering
  • Powerful motor/quality gearing
  • Rear alloy wheels
  • Rubber aerial
  • Adjustable pivoting motor pod
  • Solid 'from the box' performance
  • Very high level of detail
  • Solid non-magnetic performer

Weaknesses:

  • Rear wheel covers interfer with pivoting motor pod, (can remove wheel covers)
  • Rear tail is very fragile, (an unpainted spare is provided)

Verdict:

The Silk Cut Jaguar is a very popular and beautiful slot car, especially the LE Box edition. The Jaguar XJR-9 is a must have in any livery.
