See much better bonnet down...  DSC_6488 by dbizzle_, on Flickr and this is just brilliant  DSC_6388 by dbizzle_, on Flickr and this, except the extra headlights  DSC_6394 by dbizzle_, on Flickr this is good as well (I looked up the registration Lancia Astura, reminds me of Bugatti 57C)  DSC_6444 by dbizzle_, on Flickr Just noticed you could have picked up the coffee cup (or Photoshopped it out!) so much to like (except the modern Bentley, light green over dark green) |

Jaguar Land Rover were there promoting their new factory restoration program for classics - that Range Rover is called Swampy and is going to have a full nut-and-bolt rebuild.

Mouth watering selection but I'm guessing the Range Rover didn't win?
I didn't feel up to wading through the half million pics you'd dumped into your Flickr account so it's great to see the edited highlights!

I spoke to the JLR guys there - they had a fully restored Range Rover next to this one, so they could demonstrate a before-and-after. They also had a knackered E-Type that was next in line, along with this one and its restored equivalent behind it:  DSC_6394 by dbizzle_, on Flickr They were keen to point out that the whole hook of the project, while being hugely expensive, is to offer customers an alternative to restomodding; i.e. that you could spend an eyewatering amount of money on an Eagle E-Type and have that whole thing of classic looks and modern performance, but if you spend the money with JLR instead, you get a bona fide factory resto. www.jaguar.co.uk/about-jaguar/jaguar-classic/etype-reborn.html |

Aye its part of the JLR Classic side of the business, offering all sorts of services When they first announced they'd be doing the Classic stuff, I had my XJ40 and did enquire as to how much some work would be, safe to say it was too much for my wallet  but they do some impressive work I have had a look on occasion at working over that way as its certainly more interesting than the modern stuff I get to work on ;P |
