[quote=Mr Tidy]Somewhat late, but I saw these 2 last December - nice to see MGs that actually look good!


Is the MGB on the left a Jacques Coune MGB Berlinette?

I suspect as the house is up for rent (for £21,667 pcm! ), the cars are not there.

22 grand a month for an okay 4 beddy. Welcome to North London....

You'd have to pay me @ £22K PER DAY to live anywhere near London! - Hate the place!

They both are. Mr Tidy also posted them in the Cars You Didn't Know Existed thread.

Not the usual thing to come across when shopping in Selco's.

Just travelled down to the south of France and took the route Napoleon.
Passing through one of the villages I spotted what I initially thought ( due to its surroundings) was a scrap Citroen SM!! I had to go and have a closer look. Within a few minutes two guys appeared from the garage who owned the SM. They were very keen to show it to me and within 20 minutes I was hurtling around the foothills of the alps in it at warp speed..., the guy drove like a loon , but what a gent for offering me the chance for a spin in one of my dream cars. It was his daily driver which had had engine, brakes, suspension etc restored/replaced and was waiting for funds/time to finish interior and bodywork..

Classic? One of those is only three years old!

I know what you mean, but it is classic in style.

[TR4man]

Not something you expect to see parked at your local steak house just outside Newcastle under Lyme.

I was amazed how many other customers just parked up their cars and walked straight past it. Not even casually glancing in its direction.

I felt like grabbing them and shouting "don't you know what this car is you Philistines?"

I suppose as it wasn't a bloated white SUV with blackened windows and 22 inch alloys, it was of little interest.

A thing of beauty & has the steering wheel on the correct side.

Nice cars but I suspect neither is a real classic as I would think the XKSS is a "completion" modern build?

The ferrari is absolute perfection
200 made, 14 in rhd

Not sure about the wind deflector though.....other than that, I wouldn't say no.

The XKSS belongs to the bloke who posted the pcture.
