"LONDON - CAR LAUNDRY". Brompton Road. General view of cars to be washed lined up in a garage. We see racing driver Stirling Moss in his E type Jaguar driving onto a turntable inside the garage.

What a pleasure to see the original LHD 9600 HP in its early days with Stirling Moss:

The rotating brushes made me cringe. A few passes through that wash and 9600 HP would be ready for a respray!

Pete,

Not if it leaked the question is how much it leaked.

...That?s probably why at some point of the movie the shooting was not made from the inside of the E type...
