    Yes a very pretty car, Pininfarina styled.

    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    In the late 60's early 70's I worked as an engineer for a Janspeed agency. The owner had many expensive/ classic cars, inc. Aston Martin, Jaguar XK120, E Type Jaguar, Bentley, Daimler Dart, Mini Cooper, Austin Healey Sprite, Austin A40 (with an MGB engine), Mini Van (to Cooper spec and more). Mini racer that I did a lot of work on, but, he had not a clue how to drive. At Brands he spun in his Daimler Dart, ended up travelling the wrong way round the circuit. In his Mini racer, a Jag would not get out of the way, he rammed it, of course that took the Mini racer out of the race as oil spewed out of the front mounted oil cooler.
