In this episode of Jay Leno's Garage, we dive into the world of classic cars with a visit from the Audr Museum, showcasing a trio of automotive legends transported by Reliable Carriers. The enigmatic appraiser Donald joins the mix, adding his expertise to the discussion of a 1922 Bentley, a 1961 Chrysler, and a 1963 Citron. The Bentley, a Le Mans champion, boasts a rich history intertwined with the iconic James Bond series, adding a touch of glamour to its already prestigious reputation. Meanwhile, the Citron DS19, a futuristic marvel designed by Flaminio Bertoni, showcases French innovation and style with its unique features and exceptional comfort.

As we delve deeper into the world of classic cars, the Bentley's remarkable reliability shines through, making it a favorite among Australian owners for its ability to withstand rough conditions. On the other hand, the Citron's unconventional design and advanced features, such as the Citromatic transmission, highlight the brand's commitment to pushing boundaries and setting trends in the automotive industry. With its distinctive single-spoke wheel and Art Deco-inspired controls, the Citron exudes a sense of elegance and sophistication that sets it apart from its counterparts.

The discussion takes an intriguing turn as the team explores the possibility of electric conversions for classic cars, sparking a debate on the balance between preserving originality and embracing modern technology. While some purists argue for maintaining the authenticity of classic engines, the Citron's unique characteristics and pneumatic suspension make it a compelling candidate for an electric makeover. As the episode unfolds, Jay Leno's Garage continues to celebrate the timeless appeal and innovation of these automotive masterpieces, shedding light on the rich history and cultural significance of each vehicle.
