Now lets not get into an argument... The V12 E I had for a week was not the best performing sports car I have driven, but certainly one of the best looking, and it was only 5 years old at the time, so no old dog. The V12 gave off a low thrum, and for one used to four cylinders it sounded super smooth which was a lot different to the fours on Webers I was more used to, though the window frames rattled a bit when pressing on which I thought kinda spoiled the illusion of a luxury sports car at the time. By comparison a Morgan seems like a vintage sports car might do, whereas the E Type now might be determined as more of a Classic sports car..?
I remember knocking back an E that someone wanted me to take in exchange for my old Land Rover Safari which was built out of the remnants of three... I said to him do you think I`m Daft.... Amazing how our evaluation of much can alter in the passage of time... DUH..!
