C) A formal introduction to your local jag mechanic who (after talking to you) will call his agent because now he CAN afford that beach house he's always wanted.

D) A REAL test of your patience, your liquid assets and your spouse.


E) A complete new standard / set of tool sizing..........not SAE, not Metric, but Wentworth. Yes that's right. Whatever tools you currently own or plan to purchase have no real application to that car.
Seems the English weren't happy with a "different" car they had to invent a "different" tool sizing to actually work on them.

F) Having a car that looks fast and handles well, but really doesn't.

G) A great driver....................if you buy two because the chances are at least one won't run.

H) A great investment of your time and money who's market value will be @80% less that.

Yep..that about sums it up.
