I wrong "JET 1" was a Rover P4 not a P5, the P6 shape came out in 1960 the T4 (turbine) version in the video, Rover raced a gas turbine at Le Mans in 1963, Rover built a gas turbine car (T3) in 1956
i think you will find its the 2nd Rover gas turbine, the first was built in a P5 (3ltr) shape and this one is the 2000 (P6) body shape (like the 2200sc and 3500s)

Jet 1 was a cool looking car!

@baldandold Didn't know that!
I always thought the shape of the P6 was derived/heavily based from this Jet Car Prototype.
