The 1950s at LeMans could be described as the 'Jaguar-Years' with the marque winning five times using the C-Type and D-Type. Jaguar wanted to relive their successes at the most grueling endurance in the 1980s. They teamed up with TWR, run by Tom Walkinshaw who raced with Jaguars since the 1970s.

Their first jointly developed Group C racer was the XJR 6 introduced late in 1985. It was powered by an enlarged and extensively modified version of Jaguar's road going V12 engine. This engine itself was a direct development of the engine used in Jaguar's last prototype racer of the 1960s, the XJ13. The XJR 6 proved fast but lacked the reliability to really threaten the German Porsches
