Nice to see Quentin Wilson back on the box, plus Jodie Kidd too (tall lass that she is, at 6'2") & she's a real 'petrol-head'!
She was fun last week, when she was castigating QW over selling his E-Type (#22), I remember features in some of the classic car press when he bought it, & was trying to gather its history
However this weeks episode (I've not watched it all yet) has a feature on one of the British motor industries real success stories; the Range Rover

He's not far wrong about the prices of good original 70-72 cars, let alone the press cars & prototypes
Chassis #1 was sold last year (actually 3rd off the line, as the press office wanted a blue one for photography purposes)
