Coupe National Geographic video!

Not sure if everyone here has seen this.. but I stumbled across it last night.

It's a very cool Nat Geo video about the factory build process when they first started building the Coupe in Oxford. It is amazing to see how it all comes together!

Welcome!

I'm glad there were others like me out there who hadn't seen it yet. I was half expecting several "we already saw this ...that's old news!" posts


Oh and CR&PW&JB-- just to give you an update on your vicarious Coupe ...It is complete! and currently waiting for the ship to take it across the pond!
