Jaguar E-Pace barrel rolls to world record powered by Wolverhampton engine
A luxury car manufacturer recreated a barrel roll scene from a 1970s James Bond film to launch its latest model.
Jaguar's new E-Pace SUV vehicle successfully completed a 15.3-metre long jump while conducting a 270-degree roll at London's ExCel centre.
It was based on a similar manoeuvre carried out by Roger Moore's James Bond character in The Man With The Golden Gun.
The new cars will have Wolverhampton-built engines from JLR's plant at the i54.
Stunt driver Terry Grant was behind the wheel of the E-Pace as it earned a Guinness World Records title for the furthest barrel roll in a mass-produced vehicle.

Jaguar said the E-Pace "combines sports car design and agility with everyday SUV practicality".
It will be priced from £28,500 in the UK.
