Just an observation. Without even looking I can think of Ferrari 365 P Speciale, Ferrari Testarossa Spyder, Lancia Delta Integrale Cabriolet, plus that Thema 8.32 Estate. All requiring individual development and production by his staff for the whims of one man. I can’t think of another owner of a major manufacturer who did this so often. Most tended not to show-off as much. I wonder if it upset the militant workers of the Fiat empire?

Peter Wheeler and his TVRs?

David Brown and the odd Aston.

This is a regular spot in Port Sunlight and it looks in good order considering it is outside a lot.

Legend!

No pun intended...

A distant relation of the car, a Rover 800 Coupe, used to pull the burger van that frequently sat in a lay by between Newbury and Hungerford. I'll see if I can find it on Google Maps.

Or, if it isn't a relation at all, it certainly reminds me of the Rover 800 Coupe.

In the layby on Google Maps from 2011 to 2017. Not a burger van but A4 Kebabs. Allegedly.

Directors rather than owners of Daimler, the Dockers commissioned some notoriously extravagant one-offs.

The MGB was a bit of a cheat as it was at the NEC

Nice. I'm hoping to get mine on the road again in the next couple of weeks, once its various incontinence issues are addressed.

Meanwhile, some little red cars in Ankara this evening

Did Agnelli never have a standard production car?

Why would he? He owned the company.

At least he ordered something tasteful!

Unlike Henry Ford IIs Automatic MK2 Escort RS2000.

Which he had replaced with a 1 off 2.8i auto Capri





This was his RS2000
