Bet it wasn’t as good as the Car produced by the small department of the company that he works in but somehow claims he didn’t know anything about the car before the public and is now on a one man social media marketing campaign for.

Always loved the Conti T, had one in my top ten garage since I was a kid.

Always felt they looked out of proportion compared to the R. Mate at school's uncle had the first Continental R in the UK, I still remember sitting in it the day it was delivered. Never seen anything like it.

Lovely. A perfect upgrade from my W124 ;)

I'd forgotten how awesome that dash is, and the 590lb/ft :lol:

Nice little video.

Wasn’t that fussed about the XJ220 when it first came out, but I saw one at Goodwood a few years ago and my opinion changed. I thought it looked really cool and it’s actually not a big car.

The 360, again, not my favourite Ferrari V8s but the silver manual looks great with buckets.

Good collection:

Yeah it's his driveway. Used to enjoy his updates, 'tis a shame he's not still around.

:shock:

60mm wider than a RR Wraith
10mm narrower than an F-150
It's GIGANTIC.

XJ220 was my dream car until I had the "misfortune" to see one parked between an XJR-15 and an Enzo, since then it's been the Manatee of supercars to me.

When I was a kid my uncle was selling an XJ220 in his garage. It was in some big air filled plastic bubble, but to me it just looked crazy low, wide and long... a big low slab of a car. I was in awe of it.

At the time, I remember by contrast he had an F40 sat out in the rain with all the rest of the stock that didn't make the showroom. :shock:
