Where we get to hear a Matra V12 going round Goodwood at full chat. Oh, what a sound...

Oh dear god... The MS670 is a car I can never meet, but not for the typical “don’t meet your heroes” reasons. It’s because I would literally die of rapture, and that would be irresponsible to my family. Perhaps when I am old and sick enough to kick off without leaving them hanging, I’ll arrange to spend time with one as a final wish. Then, after I’ve taken it in for some time and enjoyed a last good beer or two while imagining the heroics of their great drivers, I’ll have a seat behind it, have it started on a dyno and run through the gears, and...
Then, and only then, I will die happy.

I was lucky enough to see one on track a couple of times, going full beans at Le Mans, for Le Mans Classic. Not gonna lie, I cried a little. Best sounding car ever!

The videos are orgasmic enough, I don’t know how I would react if I heard one in person.
