Was it Zig Zeigler, the 80's motivational speaker? That brings back some memories.

"Count Quentula" as Clarkson used to call him!

http://www.topgear.com/uk/jeremy-clarkson/clarkson...

The next day, Count Quentula was out parking cars for his village fête when I called with the news. "Tiff wants a Bee Em," I said. "Oh Christ," said Quentin. "The poor deluded fool. I'd better let him have a go in my S-Class."

And therein lies the problem. At this level in the market, people have nailed their colours to the mast and almost nothing will shake them loose. Tiff likes BMWs. Quentin likes Mercs. And I like Jags.

And when the Count tells us about the unburstability of a 500, Tiff and I wonder how we managed to miss his 50th birthday.

I stumbled across this by accident last night, brilliant little program. I now want a Triumph TR3A and have a new found respect for the E-type. I remember hearing "it could never do the claimed 150mph" but is this true? With 265hp I would expect it could easily surpass 150.
