Great side-by-side shots of first and last Countach(es?)
HarryM always mentions that the early periscopo cars are lower - very visible here.
And also visible is what an abomination the Anniversary was with those clunky side skirts and fussy wheels etc. Even the tail lights are ruined….

Was the anniversary ever considered nice looking? Basically, was it acceptable in the eighties?

Nice, always liked those late colourful E30 cabs. Excellent interior too, though doubtless somebody will suggest it’d be nicer in black leather

Nah, JIC
As mentioned before, I miss the days when the "premium" brands would do nice fabric interiors.

Was just browsing some ex-mod stock after chatting to the neighbour.
Him "I just bought a Scimitar last week"
Me "Oh cool"
Him "Yeah, it originally had a Jaguar 4.2 petrol but this one was changed to the much more desirable Cummins diesel"
Me
Him "I've got my Cat H licence test for it next month then I can take you for a spin"
I was still confused as anything at this point until he whipped out a video of him hooning a Scimitar of the armoured vehicle variety round a field and it finally made sense.

That’s an odd one, I drive one as a wee Cadet in around 1999 and it was awesome, really went well and revved much more than expected. It was like driving a Defender in low ratio and not realising.Mito Man wrote: Mon May 02, 2022 9:27 pm Was just browsing some ex-mod stock after chatting to the neighbour.

A Cummins will be vastly better but it’s top speed, the Scimitars party piece, will be much lower unless some gearing shenanigans have been done.

Spotted a similar vintage Jeep in this (includes 70s Ford wagon muscle) post. It had more 'out of my way peasant' presence than the Cullinan.Ascender wrote: Tue May 03, 2022 3:45 pm I'm having big wants today for this:

Have always liked Golfs, but never wanted one.
@scotta photographed one at the weekend that might get dub fanbois frothing due to rarity (and condition).

I find all those Levi edition AMCs/Jeeps fascinating. They did a Gremlin with a blue denim interior.Ascender wrote: Tue May 03, 2022 3:45 pm I'm having big wants today for this:

Words cannot describe how much I hate that particular detailing trend.
Some companies have even had tools made up to lightly emboss their name into the freshly hoovered striped carpets
