Clip from a Pirelli 'art' film which won three awards in 1966. It features an E-Type, an attractive woman and her child driving from Naples to London trying to get ahead of a Pirelli delivery truck. Full film runs to 50 minutes. This is a cam recording of a screening so don't expect the best quality! A period piece nevertheless.
Even stranger twist to this story..standard equipment for e types were Dunlop sp's, though the only decent surviving available tyres now are "Pirelli's"?

La Fontaine's fable updated, with an E-type Jaguar as the hare and a double trailer goods lorry as the tortoise, on the Autostrada del Sole. The dual purpose of the film is to stress the reliability of the sponsor's tyres and the pleasures of motoring in Italy.
