Who chose the music to this segment? Just wrong.
Certifiable Vintage!
E Type was a major game changer in terms of automobile design and it still look ahead of it’s time 50 years later.

“It’s nothing like the cars of today…”
“… but that’s what makes it fun.”
This is something not everyone understands; that newer isn’t always better. This is a true enthusiasts outlook. This is what makes Petrolicious so distinctive. This is why you stand out.
