I mean, the E type isn't without it's charm...but I don't think I can pull off winning lotto every year to keep one on the road They weren't exactly the pinnacle of automotive engineering, even at the time.

Dunno if you saw a Top Gear last year, where they put one around a track to compare it with modern machinery...it didn't last more than a couple of laps before steam came billowing out of the bonnet and then it dumped all its water

Cortina? Nah...but you're closer in lots of ways than the Jag...

Wasn't it the Aston Martin that dropped its guts? I thought the E-type was OK. Got it on tape somewhere- will have to check.

Nah, Aston Martins have a proud heritage of bursting into flames...somehow they always manage this miracle to coincide with press days
