Oldsmobile Toronado 1966 1:43 - n°276
The majority of Series 1 4.2-litre Jaguar XJ6s produced were fitted with an automatic gearbox, but the example modelled uses the rarer manual overdrive gearbox (MOD) and rolled off Jaguar's assembly line at Browns Lane, Coventry, on 17 May 1972. The first recorded owner was Jaguar's Personal Export division.
They registered the car in Coventry only so that it could be officially exported to the larger of the Canary Islands, Tenerife, where the British man who had ordered it, Mr IE Lloyd, was then staying. Mr Lloyd specified Sundym windows to make the car more comfortable in the hot climate and regularly brought it back to the UK for servicing.
