I've joined up with the Jaguar Heritage Race Team for the 2014 Mille Miglia, shadowing the classic cars with a Jaguar F-Type R, the latest 550hp supercharged V8 two-seater sports car.
Before we set off for the 1,000 mile adventure from Brescia to Rome and back, here's a quick introduction and a few blips from the glorious V8 fitted to this car. We'll be getting to know the car in detail during the trip but here's a run down of the spec and car overall as we arrive with it for the first time.
Thanks for watching, Tim
