Car guys, what is this?
« on: June 17, 2020, 12:35:54 AM »
Young Mr. Slick, 30's in a ugly tie,  pulled up across the way from me this morning, climbed out of this and was the only patron to go into our coffee shop without a mask.
Signs all over town , "Be Kind" with a mask drawing.

He's an idiot - but I'm thinking his car is a Jaguar?

I've seen a new Bugatti and Maserati in this little burg as well.

Looks like a Jaguar XK, recent but not latest model. Driver should put mask on face and bra on car.

Thanks for the info.
I'll give him this much - it was a glorious morning to have the top down!

I had a 1960's something Mustang convertible for awhile in Massachusetts. I never put the top up!
 On my 30 mile highway commute to work at the hospital -- I learned that snow would go right over the top at speed. Just bundle up.

It's a Ford that we get over here and I'm guessing you didn't - you're not missing much.
