Just imagine

Post by gtsmrt » Mon Aug 08, 2011 12:27 pm

Hi,

I first saw these amazing vehicles on the latest TopGear series now showing in Australia and was instantly in awe at what the company produced. I am talking about the Eagle speedster that was test driven by Jeremy Clarkson. Here is their link for anyone interested: http://www.jaguarspeedster.com/
I was just thinking what if... What if they got their hands on a Tiger, what they could produce.

A frighteningly expensive Tiger.

:lol: nice one.. I'll pass on taking style and aesthetic advice from Jeremy Clarkson... car looks like some ricer version of a 60's racer...

about the only thing wrong wih the orignal S1 XKE was the train track look front on.. wider wires or the leightweight E bonnet and its about formal perfection.

For me the ultimate modified tiger was the HSC 55, about the only thing that could improve the proportions would be slightly larger wheels to fill out the flared guards (due to rules it had to run 13" wheels so they ran very tall tyres.. the LM Tiger wheels would work nicely.. or the PS wheel HSC replicas in 14 or 15")

Me thinks if Jezza wants one of these "more than his left leg", judging from the height of his head OVER the top of the windscreen, he may have to forfeit both legs in order to fit.
