Hell no, get it out on the road and on track. Enjoy proper pieces of flowing tarmac with the engine howling under load and growling back on the over run.

Drive for miles and get out feeling amazed by driving a piece of history to its limit.

Make that cars components work like they were meant to until you get the best from them.

Fulfill that cars potential. Don't treat it like a ned and his corsa on a Sunday night outside bnq.

I suspect that goes on as well

anyway, look forward to link to your videos

Looks like a convertible to me. Square-ish back a bit like a GTV

Brave drifting in the barn, looked close to the walls

Nice work.

...Rodney nearly in line for a slap there.

LOVE IT
I did clench a bit in the barn !

Put your politics or jealousy away - its just great fun. If you could afford it, you would do it too.
Good on em

[Justayellowbadge]

The exit from the barn actually made me gasp.

Id be amazed if it does. But if it does, why no videos of that? Share the good bits eh?

Plenty videos of our hoons kicking around. This aint the place to advertise them.

I'm not sure it was necessary to lock up all 4...

We get it, you have money.

Wasn't the 288 GTO originally designed for some stillborn Group B tarmac circuit racing and not rallying?

Either way it made some pleasing sounds.

[Ian_C]

A floppy haired Jay Kay driving maybe?

[eggchaser1987]

I do enjoy these videos, it's nice to see cars like these being driven rather than just being looked at. Not that it matters but do we have an idea who he/she/they are yet?

[Fantuzzi]

Awesome sounds. God that engine sounds sweet.

[FilH]

kool been waiting for the 288 one

Stunning car and quality video

[Justayellowbadge]

Just caught the XJ220 one.

Jesus Christ.

[GTRene]

loved the video, I wish I could drive like that and had such car lol.

[suffolk009]

Nice Landie (1.41).

[BlimeyCharlie]

I think you'll find it was the late, great Terry Nutkins driving.
Also, I spotted a drop of poor continuity, in that the car was mucky before going into the barn, then clean in the barn.
Things like that bug me.

The car under a cover? I'm going for an Aston Martin Zagato Volante, circa 1990.

[graeme4130]

Definitely the best one so far
These vids gave gone from 'look how loaded we are and a middle finger up' to really good vids with some decent driving and camera stuff
Good to see them using the car properly

Great video & let's face it, if you could, you would!

If I could then I would - drive it on some great B roads and through Europe, rather than a muddy farmyard.

Seeing as these guys appear to be ok drivers and have great cars, why not do a proper review of them?

pretty sure it's Jon Hunt's children, the chap who founded Foxtons and sold it at the peak of the boom for £375M

It was also his Muira that was destroyed in a fire

That was all pretty good, apart from the dire, poor-man's Gymkhana bit with the Roman Candles at the end. What a beautiful car, and the noise from inside the engine bay is simply riotous!
