As Mr Stott will testify, I really don't like E Types as a general rule, however every now and again one pops up that makes me wibble a tad. And that is one of them

It gives it a very 'D' feel. Very nice.

Speaking of nice old Jags, I was cycling near Elephant & Castle in London this week and a most excellent chap was commuting in his C-Type Jag.

Or at least I'm pretty sure it was. And it had the little 'TOW -->' stickers on the back so one assumes it gets some good use.

I guess not everyone will enjoy this as it's not really car content (though it does have a brief car cameo, and some fabulous engine content), but I hope some will appreciate it...

Myself and my 12 yo daughter loved watching it - that is a thing of beauty but at some price...

Utterly stunning.

Whilst browsing I saw this and meant to post it but the £300k E-type has made me think where slightly less funds would go on a continuation/rebuild/whatever:

FIA



But then this 50th Anniversary at $229k looks better value if you're not planning on racing.

50th

oooof, top finds.

That Zagato Junior is fantastic.

The Cobras are one of my top favourite bits of the Revival.

It's one of the highlights seeing them flat out.

I'm not sure that I can get the ad I was looking at on here (on wife's Mac and I've NFI how to use it...) but this company has some amazing cars for sale particularly an Alfa I never knew even existed.

Merry Christmas to Threadists past and present.

Holy moly. That’s perfect.

There is a garage near me that sees some interesting sights, including this Ferrari Testarossa owner doing some winter maintenance on his RHD White ‘rossa.

I think there can’t be many Ferrari owners that are this rustic / agricultural!
He freely admits he couldn’t afford to buy it now. But will never sell it.

[Crook]

I suppose after everything it is only a car and a mechanical one at that.
I’ve been watching a few Harry’s Garages and he comments that his Countach is relatively straightforward for working on in comparison to new fast cars. The Ferrari is only a slightly newer design.

There's a guy who used to frequent this thread who pulled the engine on his 355 and did the belts himself IIRC.
