NEW! HELM Jaguar E Type 300hp Restomod - FIRST DRIVE Review! 

i guess I am kinda off topic but does anybody know of a good place to watch new tv shows online ?

Yes, it's a bit Roadster Shop, isn't it?

I guess it's a deal breaker for you

If one can afford this, you can also afford to have the logos stripped. I would... I find the Helm logos disgusting in a car like this.

Doesn't bother me one bit, because just look at her shine!

Their guy in UK that turns old cars electric

You are assuming everyone hates the idea of evs. I don't. Plus reimagining cars cost lots of money

@@allensaunders449 true. But what cost the environment to make those batteries in raw materials in mining. Vs small hole in ground pull natural gas is where need think. Or what spend in electric is hydrogen the best answer with zero emissions with water as bi product

@@allensaunders449 I don't hate evs either, I quite like them, I just don't think they have the same soul as classic cars. Evs are useful in their own way. But I get where you're coming from.

@@jamespugh That's like ripping out the soul of the car and hooking up to the Matrix. It's pointless and sacrilege.

Enzo did...even though he never said it was the most beautiful car ever created. That is an urban legend dispelled by the man who was actually there. Norman Dewis, jaguars test driver. Enzo did say it was beautiful, but that was it. Non of that ever created nonsense.

@@elmerfudd1086 I feel like you should provide a source link since I don't see your info anywhere and the Enzo quote is still used.

@@FrankDBoyce let’s just stick with it, whether Enzo said it or not, it’s true.

You may already know this. Upon seeing the E-type for the first time, Enzo Ferrari said to one of the Jaguar staff at the show "You know, the only thing wrong with your E-type? It doesn't have the Ferrari name on it"! (something like that)

IF he said that, and there is absolutely no "documentation" of that supposed "quote", he sure as hell wasn't talking about "late model" E-type COUPES. And "a competitor"? ROFLMAO. Yeah. Mass-produced "race inspired" E-types were "competitors" for Enzo's hand-built "grand touring" road cars that were Enzo's only REAL "passion" while Ferrari "race cars" were nothing but "busy work" for the "engineers" once new road car "development" was done AND the "race cars" were all "raced" by factory "engineers" and WERE "road cars" only heavier with additional safety equipment. And "Le Mans"? It was not a "race" in Enzo's day and the Ferraris were not "works cars". It was a "reliability trial" and primarily an "engineering exercise" and a full 2-week "grand tour" of Europe ran in a "day". Which is why when Ford's "factory" races cars "beat" Ferrari with "professional drivers" and one "mechanic" behind the wheels - Ferrari never had a "team" of identical cars - Enzo Ferrari was "absent" and could not have cared less. Especially since Ford "invested" more in the GT40 "program" just to "beat Ferrari" - on its second "attempt" against the same Ferrari "field" from the previous year - than Ford "offered" to buy Ferrari "outright". A LOT more. And at the time Ford itself was teetering on the edge of "bankruptcy" and in fact HAD to "go public" AND eventually "retire" all of its "factory race teams" just to avoid being "sold out" because none of Ford's "competitors" were remotely interested in "acquiring" Ford Motor Company at any price. The "Ford family" retains its "controlling interest" in "Ford Motor" despite being a "minority shareholder" because the "Ford family" had to "bail out" Ford Motor Company and "holds" the overwhelming majority of its "debt". And continues to "invest" in absolute dead-end new vehicle "programs" and "development" as well as "motorsport" because as long as Ford Motor has a "negative net worth" there is no risk of a "hostile takeover" and an "outsider" coming in and actually putting Ford in "competition" with the other "Big 2" in "Detroit" by ending Ford "globalism" and the huge losses Ford's business operations "abroad" create every "year".

looove butterscotchy

By all means JW, take care of that! 😁

I'm almost 100% sure youtube just generates dislikes. Can't imagine people disliking stuff like this.

Suck air thru a throttle body, of any kind = carburettor sound!

Such a shame to see this beautiful car driven in such nasty weather conditions.

Or a UK company equivalent like 911Rennsport 👍

@@RobGalvin65 theres no other company that even compares to the level of build quality of singer, they make the car absolutely perfect down to the millimeter

Cheeeeeerssss!!!

Glad you enjoyed ☺️

Driven as intended....;)

I'm glad I don't have to clean it afterward.....that would be a big job....

Coming soon 😎

I am sure he meant it when he said it, but I am equally sure that it was simply a snapshot in time, and he considered his own later cars more beautiful. The Daytona is definitely an homage to the E-Type.

No he got the intent correct

Eagle speedster. But they cost.

I would miss the satisfying clunk/click of the normal latch.

yessss

Ooh a 2000GT. One of the most beautiful cars ever alongside the Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale and Alfa Romeo Giulia TZ2.

You mean the boot.

Isn't a boot something you put on your foot ☺

@@allensaunders449yes You mean like a hood that you wear on your head

You could always build your own as I am 🙂

@@paullevers1095 yes I am looking at doing that. I just wanted him to cover some.that are not hundreds of thousands of dollars.

@@eichler721 sounds positive. What are you thinking of doing? Mine is a 1955 MGTF Replica based on a 1971 Triumph so not an up to date retro mod but should go and stop a bit better than the original.

@@paullevers1095 I am looking at a Shelby Cobra with a modern Coyote. If I could afford the 5.2Voodoo or a built 426 that would be amazing but I only have so much cash. Edit: its also a replica as I wish I could buy a crazy original but thats dreaming right now.

@@paullevers1095 mine is definitely a summer car and occasionally track day. It should sound amazing and be pretty fast since it should weight around 2600lbs or less.

Using the lens of the era in which the Jag debuted, it wasn't really all that crude: compared to my DD of a Hyundai? REALLY crude!

Paul W I was using today’s criteria.

English Class! at it's finest.

I dont normally comment on RU-vid but I had to laugh at this given the errors in your comment.... all the best to you sir 🤣

P.s. What a car!!! Let's praise that instead

I just don't like 'em. They're for wimps or handicapped people.

@@KutWrite This. How much effort is it to close a door properly? Not enough to justify an extra electric motor + wiring, sensors and sheit imo

Really well done reimagined cars are expensive

Damn shame you can't smell it tho'!!

There is always that guy in the room...

It is. Only a museum can afford to buy it.
