Most Insane Van Ever

This thing is completely nuts. I'll let you guys have a few guess's first. Hint the wheels should give it away.

On Top Gear? Haven't seen that one.

So the history behind this is Jaguar built it as a development mule for the XJ220, underneath the body is the full chassis and running gear of the XJ220, it's even faster to 60mph, top speed is apparently 170mph.
