For a point, do you know what this is, and what it was called?

Can you give me a more details? Locked to you until your next reply (and remember that I am also looking for what this was called!)

I can only guess that this test mule was used at the time when the XJ13 racing experiment was already stoppped and a V12 limousine, larger than the XJ6, was planned. But since I have no idea about the name (if Saab hadn't already used that, I would call it "the toad"
), I'm happy to have pushed this puzzle a bit and leave the rest to someone more capable of doing that.

Nothing to do with the XJ 13 specifically, but you were on the right track with the XJ 12, so worth following that line of thinking.
Jaguar's name for this vehicle sort of reflects what you see in the photo, if this helps.
