My parents had a big Daimler Sovereign when I was growing up (in fact they only got rid of it 5 years ago). OK so that's not as big as FT's Buick, but that drank fuel and ran on 5*... something that wasn't readily available. Me dad made a copper gasket to lower the compression so it could run on 4*. How much petrol would you like a car to drink...?
They now have a Triumph Stag - also drinks fuel, just not like the Daimler - and a Range Rover. Though that runs on LPG to keep costs down...
