MY UNCLE HAD 2 OF THESE said they were the best cars he has ever owned - and he has had E-Types, Ferraris, endless Jags, Lotus, De Tomasso, Facel Vega, Lancia Gama coups... Literally hundreds of classics but when I asked him which was the best, which he enjoyed the most - the Fiat 130 Coupe was his No1. Got a Mk9 Jag at the moment

@david-hf3dk He went through a shameful American car phase LOL. That ended when the back axle on a corvet stingray gave way on a corner on the A1 and he crashed into the upstairs bedroom of a farmhouse. He was always the cool uncle we used to go stay with in the summer holidays - we grew up in Batley West Yorkshire in the Thatcher era - you can imagine what it was like for us to spend summer at a place like Harry's Garage. The most exotic car in the whole of Batley was a Mk2 Ford Granada in Gold...

@trwsandford No I dont think he has had a A H. Had Triumph TA. Had Jenson Interceptors, 2 I think. He is a farmer and he restored classics over winter, but he is nearly 80 now, he had to pay to have the Mk9 Jag restored. He once told his son he was off to buy a Lamborghini and came back 2 days later with a tractor, after the kid had told all his school mated they were getting a Lambo LOL

@robertmenghini.Lambomad Sadly I never saw them in the flesh - only on the pictures on his wall.

@KenanTurkiye So your point is that 1970's Jags didn't have a lot of power compared to modern cars? NO SH!T SHERLOCK My. neighbour has a Merc AMG A-45. Its a 2 litre 4cyl with I think 420bhp. Am3ric4n 7 and 8L V8's of the early 70's were producing 175bhp
