Four wheels are apparently too many for Jaguar’s first ever SUV, the F-Pace, which managed to complete the infamous Goodwood hill climb on just two of them.

For the impressive deed , Jaguar joined forces with stunt driver Terry Grant, who piloted the exact same example last year straight into the Guinness World Record for the biggest loop-a-loop, at the vehicle’s launch.

In order to make the stunt even more dramatic, professional freestyle motorcycle stunt rider Lee Bowers came along for the ride, swapping his saddle for the F-Pace’s seats and climbing out of the passenger window to stand on the side and salute the crowd, before climbing back inside, ahead of the finishing line.

“When Jaguar gave me the opportunity to reunite with the F-Pace used to break the world’s largest loop record, I couldn’t say no. Its light, stiff aluminum body and precise controls make it the perfect wheelie vehicle, and it was great to have Lee Bowers along for company – even if he did climb out halfway through our run!“, Terry Grant said.

The stunt required hours of planning and the final preparations were completed at the Santa Pod Raceway, in Northamptonshire, just days ahead of the live event.
