........in the film Spectre, last night. :'(.
It was bronze in colour and looked very familiar, although I couldn't quite place it.
Pretty sure it was not a diesel. :)

Jaaaaaag C-X75

Jaaaaaag C-X75
Ah...yes. That could be why it looks familiar. I don't think it ever entered production though.
I'd like one though. :)
-
......would £25000 do it?
Optimistic? :)

I believe one of the cars used in Spectre has been recently sold but its a Jag Jim but not as we know it :-X

£1.5 million is far too rich for my blood.
Nice car but I'd be afraid to leave it in the car park at Lidl and Aldi. ::)

......and the XJ220 looks better for a fraction of the price. :y

Maybe for a fraction of the price of a XJ220, this 220 (ish) (https://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C1239461) would be more suitable for an impoverished aristocrat? :)

The one in the film was a tube frame special with rally suspension and a V8 in the back, the production car was to be a massively complex high revving 4 cyl turboed Cosworth lump with gas turbine assisted hybrid system...The Mercedes One is most similar in concept with it's F1 derived "Power Unit".

Note quite
The first proto was a gas turbine setup with electric motor hybrid (there are still bits on peoples desks), the follow on cars were a screaming 1.6 Williams produced petrol plus the hybrid, made for a very impressive performance and a few years before any other hybrid super cars were about.
Major issue was getting enough engines from Williams, although they now use much the same setup in V12 for the new Aston.
The motor and drive system made its way into the iPace, many of the design hints externally hit the F-Type, JLR learned a lot from it.
But a truly stunning car, there are a couple in storage at classics (well worth a visit, I think one was the Bond motor), one in the heritage centre at Gaydon, and a few more in 'storage'

Same basic lump as found in my car.
£165000 and the steering wheel on the wrong side just doesn't do it for me, I'm afraid.
As for the colour......... :y 8)

Looks like that colour was whizzed up by Haagen Daz, or Ben & Jerry,s. ::)

I believe the old boy from Barnsley owned a glacially slow Astra 1.4 in the same colour. :)
