It's different. These cars can wear any colour and still be dignified...

Ummmm....well, the thought of a creamcycle does come to mind? The finish is horrid, if that is paint, they need to move to FL because it has so much orange peel....lol

I just found where the rats modified my wiring harness so they could make a nest inside the master cylinder well. Horrible modification, they chewed half of the wiring where I can't reach it. I'm about to give up on my jag. Smh!

I love the pink jag! It's a great idea for a birthday present to any female close in your life.

Looks like it could've been a Mary Kay car.

Perhaps I've got a car to beat them all - just spotted this fine specimen of a Jaguar in Central Havana, Cuba:

I have to say, those Cubans sure have to use some serious ingenuity to fix their cars. It looks like its part Studebaker.

The first one was in the latest Mad Max film I think. I definitely recall seeing it or one very much like it in the film.

Currently for sale in Alabama. "...already in the shop and all you have to do is get it out of the shop..."

If you look at the Fiat plate, it is in Britain
