    Actually that was my first thought but then we have different reasons for loving or hating different old crap cars, I had a reliant regal once upon a time, it was a death trap but I had some great adventures in the car so I have a soft spot for that particular hos

    Well done Wes, I’d definitely take the 850r and the XJR sedan out of that line up especially if I’d suddenly come into money and been drinking heavily for 3 days straight

    I liked it, have driven 3 or 4 others too.

    Fast and much better to drive than RR of the same vintage.

    My father had a 1969 Rambler Javelin, much the same car.

    Had heaps of grunt and looked cool.

    I think I would have been 10 or so when he had it.
