The name Testarossa (redhead) is legendary in the world of classic European car enthusiasts, yet the origin of that feature – the red embossed paint on the heads – is far less epic than it seems.

There is only one XJ13 built by Jaguar in 1965 in order to participate (and possibly win) in subsequent editions of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, but that never happened.
