Yeah the fuel bill for that will make the 4.6L V8 (which makes the same power) I have look frugal.

I don't usually like E types but that's pretty cool. I'd prefer dark green or blue though.

What a tragic waste.
Those rear arches are absolutely gopping.
1/10. And only a 1 because at some point in its life it used to be a Jaguar; literally it's only redeeming feature.

The front arches are more out out of keeping of the era of the form being squared off. The wheels of course too big, and the offset leaving them a little too far out. But then the originals were always ridiculously inboard. Niether this nor the original are my cup of tea, e types are a touch over rated.

Have to agree with this, never could the word gopping be under used for this monstrosity, what a horrible thing to do with a beautiful car...

Still, different strokes for different folks...

I wouldn't say tragic waste, seeing as this is what he started with.

Fair play then - not to my taste, but even before seeing that the craftsmanship is obvious!
