The Jags I was talking about were 1960s and 70s. Wonderful cars but there were few imports to gauge them against.
I agree that Nissan is something else but not as a daily driver.
By the way, I've gone off the big Merc CL idea after Clarkson's wee ignition coil problem!
I seem to remember the E-Type being touted as capable of going from stopped, to 100mph and back to a stop in 20 seconds.
I wonder what that Nissan could do that in? Probably under 10 ish?
