parked up outside. But that substantial price tag meant it was the S-Class that became my de facto run around. That's not normal, is it? I just couldn't countenance the idea of some nincompoop bashing a door into OFD 365's glass-like Emerald Green paintwork while I flitted about the cheese aisle in Sainsbury's. It's expensive then. But before leaping straight to the comments section to say so, hear me out.
That starts with the chassis strengthening that makes it torsionally stiffer. Then the Overfinch Fast Road Suspension package is installed, which includes upgraded springs, dampers and anti-roll bars. Better brakes are fitted, with six-pot calipers at the front and four-pots at the rear. The front and rear diffs are uprated, along with the transfer box, prop shafts and half shafts.
And really exquisite trimming. The attention to detail surely justifies the price. The contrasting stitching is beautifully executed, and knits together a fair few cows worth of supple, tan hide that cover almost every square inch of the interior. What's not leather is suede, like the headlining. Or chromed metal, like the heater vents, gear lever and handbrake that were once bits of plastic. Then there are veneers.
The V8 catches and settles into a rather appealing, slightly lumpy idle. The first few miles of my journey are through town, and I'm pleasantly surprised. The throttle response is docile and there's never any need to use more than a quarter of it, such is the overabundance of torque from the V8. Let's just say that building speed is completely effortless. The brake pedal is reassuring as well, with much more progression and bite than I remember any Classic having.
Gimme the Bishops Heritage over that, any day of the week.
.....and a bargain at £300K 😲
