Beautiful car. Since I don’t have any AUD, wonder if they’d take Monopoly money?

Thanks for the head's up. Was looking for a silver one instead...

There seem to be a few for sale. There is a Green TWR in Baltimore, and another XJ220 in St. Louis available now.

Occasionally I wonder what the world of high end, high cost, exotic automobiles will look like in about 50 years from now. Will there still be any demand for these cars, such as there is now for exotics from the 1960's? Will it even be legal to drive these cars on public roads, or will the self-driving cars squeeze them out? Will there still be refueling stations dispensing gasoline or will there only be electric recharging stations? Thus relegating them to private roads, race tracks and museums alone.
Knowing that I will probably never be able to afford/own this type of car lets my mind rest at ease.

Since I won’t be around 50 years from now, I’ll enjoy guzzling gas for my remaining years, don’t think any electric or self drivers will be in my garage.

I've never been a huge fan of these. I'd so much rather have a D-Type.

There's a blue one local to me with XJ220 plates on it. The owner drives it to car shows and like. I believe it is currently on display at the mot.org. The local Aston dealer stores the car for the owner if not some of the time.

One of my all time favorite super cars that XJ220. That and an Enzo!

I really like the story of the XJ220, What it was meant to be vs what was delivered, then the litigation.

It is my favorite car to drive on TDU, and it is pretty fun on Forza too. That'll be the closest I ever get to one.
