It’s an odd thing to suggest that a winner of a race as famous as Le Mans, as recently as the 1990s, could be described as “obscure”, but the TWR WSC95 is kinda obscure. It’s a jumble of contradictions: a Porsche, but also a Jaguar; unloved, but also cherished; a TWR car, but also a Joest one; an unfancied Frankenstein’s monster that belied its bizarre origins to win back-to-back Le Mans. It’s also the favourite Le Mans car of one very accomplished Swede.

“The WSC95 obviously brings great memories for me, as we won the race in it, but it was an incredibly good car,” says Stefan Johansson, who won the ’97 Le Mans 24 Hours in Joest’s #7. “The bones of the car were very good. It was easy to drive, and very predictable in all conditions.”
