Chassis: XJR-5/004
Chassis 004 was one of the most successful of all XJR-5s. It was raced extensively by Group 44. Upon its retirement, it was sold to Peter Kaus, who displayed it in his Rosso Bianco Museum. Before the car was shipped to Germany, it only received a cosmetical restoration and a tag was applied to the chassis that the car should be used for display purposes only. Kaus sold his entire collection, including the XJR-5, in 2005. The new owner offered chassis 004 at Bonhams' Quail auction where it sold for $238,000.
