Since I let my Practical Classics subscription lapse I forgot that Jay Leno was quite a petrolhead.
Because that was a few years ago I'd never considered that he might be showing off his collection on YouTube.
I'm aware this doesn't run on petrol. If you're that bothered look at the 3-ton car with the RR Merlin engine.

I found his videos annoying. He has a terrible habit of talking all over the people who've brought their pride and joy in, and telling them all about their own car.
If you haven't found it yet, I find Harry's Garage is much more watchable. www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Gdcp9HKJ6U

The production quality of his videos are just immense.

Nice
I still find it amazing that the Stanley steam car held the speed record of 127mph, set in 1906.
BTW I think it would have been quite happy running on petrol!
