****erism at its most extreme.

There is no plausible reason to do this to a classic such as an E-Type, except to show what a tosser you are.

Simple fact is, if you've swallowed the greenhouse gas kool-aid, and believe ICEs to be the spawn of Satan, then buy yourself a Nissan Leaf and be done with it.
