This is marketing nonsense gone mad. Why would anyone buy one of these?? It has no sound, no presence, no substance at all.
The AC Cobra was built around an engine. A roaring V8.

And as for 58 being a special number of significance?? What an absolute load of old cobblers!

More fun in a dodgem car at the fair.......

The whole point of the Cobra is the engine. Without an engine that will make the ground shake is utterly utterly pointless.

Cobra? More like Grass snake.

Looks good on Noah’s Instagram account with his skinny influencer girlfriend, skinny jeans and skinny mocha latte. He doesn’t have to pay the congestion charge while shopping at Selfridges and because he’s been brought up on modern cars that require no skill to drive he’s not going to need Ken and his Birmingham screwdriver.

I wouldn't mind so much if the electric version was blisteringly fast (think Tesla ludicrous mode) but 6.7 to 60 is a joke.

It's a no from me.

Currently 5-1 v Tesla. The 1 isn't an aberration though - it was let go.
Knowing what would be round the blind corner it was desperate to get to first :smile:

I was gonna say that! Wilfred Bramble was actually a Dubliner and was tried for 'importuning' which I think is legalese for wänking people off in public toilets.

That's in the first film, very funny IMHO cos most 70's UK TV series movie spin-offs were bad!

I like the scene were Albert was sleeping the stable with Hercules and kept his false teeth in the horses water bucket. Harold sees and says 'you dirty old man, the horse has got to drink out of that'!

And when Harold was in the bath and Albert says 'you're always having a bath', looks at the water and says 'see, you can see the bottom'!!

No children involved just sex in public, Sir John Gielgud was convicted of the same.

Just a latter version of the same perception in law that did for Oscar Wilde although his was self inflicted, for an intellectual he was a blithering idiot.

The actor that played Gail Platt's dad (or step dad) on Corrie was done for it too...

You should go have a go on the drifting dodgems in Lloret but make sure you ARE driving under the influence of alcohol.
