Description

Cars of Great Britain and the USA go head to head as you test drive two classics in one petrol fuelled driving session with this E-type Jaguar versus Classic Mustang driving experience in Oxfordshire.

Following a sublime run, come back to earth to change cars and go a further six miles in a 1968 Ford Mustang Fastback, the ultimate muscle car. Take home a certificate as a memento. Which was your favourite?
