Apparently the Pirana was an improvement on the e-type.

It featured in 'Cars for Women' Pathe News film from the London 1967 Motor Show.
Wonder if it was Boris's dad that organized the commentary ?
Great Japanese accent and ' take me home from the pub women ' philosophy.
After 52 years not much changed for some ?

Picked up this Beryl green beauty from Chesterfield on Saturday for my youngest son who was thrilled. Having not been driven that regularly by the previous owner she did well on the 200 mile run back!

Prom duty
My half brother asked if he could borrow my car to get to the Prom. I said yes before thinking about the insurance implications (2 days of phoning around and googling to make that happen) and how terrified I'd be following him. We swapped cars after arrival so no danger of an incident late in the evening
(yes, he is huge - like 6'6)

Funny you should say that! I spotted her on the first day and told my friend Ron Fleming that there was a young Jungle Pam there - turns out she was the girlfriend of the son of Graham who owns the dragster. I see a career as a back-up girl in her future.
