And having paid out such a sum, he said he was determined to get his money's worth: "We're going to fire the car up and drive it round the streets of London tonight. We're going to have a bit of fun with it." :cool:

There isn't a lot I wouldn't do for a drive of that car.

It still looks stunning to this day.

I have this idea that the American gentlemen has a vision of the 'streets of London' based entirely on old James Bond films and he'll be all surprised when the traffic density is about 20 times what he expects and it isn't all Morris Minors, Lotus Cortinas and Jaguar MkIIs.
