- Victory by Design is a series of documentary films produced in the 1990s and 2000s on the subject of famous racing automobile marques, hosted by former racing driver, Alain de Cadenet.
Probably the sexiest looking race car of the modern era. And I just love the story. It’s made me a Jag fan.
I so miss Alain, the English gentleman racer personified. And soon, I fear, I will be missing Jaguar also. Of the many great British marques, Jaguar has always been my favorite. Maybe what addicted me was my first ride as a ten-year-old in my Dad’s new Mark I. Whatever, after four Jaguars of my own, I’m still hooked. Especially heartbreaking is the awareness that Jaguar’s current line may be its best ever. Try convincing Americans of that; for decades they’ve been brainwashed into believing the only European cars worth having were German. And so it goes. Bloated “Grand Touring” coupes from Germany are raking in American dollars while the most beautiful luxury sports car in the world, Jaguar’s F-Type, will soon be an orphan. Alain and Jaguar, for me you will always live on.
Well said. I have a 2023 F-Type P450 and 2023 F-Pace SVR. Love them and the brand - they have soul. Very apprehensive of the all EV line up from 2025. idiotic.
RIP Alain
Remember when the Speed Channel was actually worth watching?
I miss those days with a passion!!
I was just about to post that same message. Miss those days. The last time I checked it had a bunch of lame reality shows on.
I remember when I saw this program the first time on the speed channel, at first I thought it was going to be a drowsy show, but when I saw the detail on the explanation that Alain de Cadenet offered for every single of the machines he presented, that was a flawless victory, RIP Mr de Cadenet 🙏🏼
Yep! I even taped this from Speed.
Alain de Cadenet is the best. I loved this show. Alain, please bring it back!
Me too ... 11yrs later...
Sadly, Alain de Cadenet passed away on July 2, 2022 🙏🏼
@@grod-ph1wv that blows , 🙏
Rest in peace, Alain de Cadenet.
i love this show! Top Gear is fun, but this show really express' the soul of some of these cars. fantastic cinematography, and the 'track' around the lake is awesome!
I cannot imagine driving the last "pinnacle" of Group C protos (before the 1990-1993 downfall with the V10 "reform" leaded by Ecclestone) in these countryside roads, with that incredibly powerful V12 engine... even if that is the 1987 WEC Specs version and not the 1988 state-of-art LM one, I cannot imagine just the guts to drive it around on narrow open roads... RIP Alain, truely a Le Mans legend.
Excellent series! I loved watching these years ago, Alain is a perfect person to host this.
I sat in this car when I was 8... Valparaiso Indiana
wowowowow cat scratch fever... i love some jaguar, but xj silk cut is probably my favorite car ever...thank you for posting, i really enjoy this video of the car.
Yep..he took a lot of heat on the barrett jackson auctions for not knowing muscle cars..but he knows European marks inside and out
The car that ended Porsche's dominance with the 956/962 models. That alone makes it a legend.
True but it had the benefit of being about six years later in design.
and 7L engine, which, with the fuel restrictions introduction, made it completely useless. Next 2 WEC seasons clearly demonstrate that.
I wish he did a lamborghini special. This show was one of my inspirations for my videos today on youtube. :)
1:37 onwards...eargasm.
1988年 ルマン１２３忘れません
Keep yer hybrid whatsits and diesel turbo guff.... give us proper engines!
Howling Jags, operatic Ferraris... maybe Audi could reinvent the old Auto Union V16, and Porsche could join in with a flat six bark... And to round out the top 5 most successful manufacturers... Bentley, could bring W shaped engines into the fray.
What a grid that would be..
I'd pay to watch that, and I'd stay up for the whole 24 hours too.
give us a V14 ffs
There is a reason why all you mention is gone.
Ronald de Rooij That May be but these are much more fun and take real skill to drive..
1:36 - 1:46 oh what a noise!
The Autobahn!!!
Dear God,
Please let me die and come back as Alain De Cadenet! He is a real life version of James Bond.
Saw this car up close and got to have a proper good look , it wasn't in the best shape though
Benendes C Porsche killer
Gorgeous car!
very brave person. he sits in the cockpit without a helmet.

Beautiful car, but how extremely unreliable it was. I think it won Le Mans by some miracle, because all the other races that season it broke down.
Ronald de Rooij it was in test mode for the first two seasons. Tom Walkinshaw said it would take 3 seasons to win and that’s exactly what happened. If you don’t like the jags, go and watch something else..
Broke down? This car won the second of back to back world sports car championship doubles. Brundle won with a record points haul.
sorry but u drive it like a little girl whit she litle cup of tea in one hand i think u dont rev more than 3000rpm
It's worth multiple millions of dollars or whatever currency you use. I don't blame him for driving tentatively at all, especially considering that it's the ACTUAL car that won Le Mans. A museum piece for sure.
This cat bites back
Alain de Cadenet won the World Sports Car championship and got third at Le Mans, you know-nothing moron.
