Crikey Junkman, what are you typing into the search box to come up with stuff like that?

 

Buy My Volvo: definitely genius. Best thing I've seen on YouTube in a very long time.

Mk 3 Cortina GXL 2 Door

Does it come with a plastic model of Graham Hill?

 

 

 

 

 

 

(Or am I the only one who remembers that in the Corgi catalogue...)

Nothing. It was displayed in the suggestions at the bottom of the page, like most of the stuff I post.

Then I click on it, and the suggestions at the bottom of the page change to something even more shite, and so on.

I think the trike was suggested when I was looking for front door pulls for my Rover.

Do you think the paint engineers at Jaguar busted their asses for months to come up with a sort of version of British Racing Green that just looked SHITE? because if so I would say their efforts were well worthwhile. This looks properly dismal. In fact I'd say these are the new ultimate car for 'champagne motoring/lemonade money' types, i'm surprised you dont see more chrome arched white ones. I used to wonder why these had not been more of a sales success, but you just have to see a few for sale on eBay to realise why - they really look like a cheap thing thats been half-heartedly made to look expensive. A Rover 75 just seems vastly superior in all ways to me even if you do have to change its head gasket more often.

I'd agree with the X Type paint sentiment. Mine is "Radiance Red" (like MGR Nightfire) and it's REALLY hard to make the car look clean. Even after a good snowfoam, followed by a Meguiars 1-2-3 machine polishing job, the car looks dull after about a day, even if I haven't driven it and there's been no rain.

 

Compare that to the paint job on my Rover 25: OK it's a different colour, but the Rover can really be quite grubby, not actually look dirty and still have the shine from the waxing.

 

The Jaag in the advert is a D Classic with cloth and a manual gearbox - tragic & awful, even on a good day.

There was a police version as well.

They're actually Ford Taunus 17m underneath you know, and a Princess had one,and it was the last Jaguar personally signed off by Sir William Lyons.

 

Seriously,if you could find a manual 3.0 AWD it must be like a giffer Evo6.
