5 Cool Cars You'll Find In Jay Leno's Garage

Jay Leno is a talk show legend in the US, and what gives him legendary status here in the world of British motoring, is his penchant for cars; new cars, classic cars, fast cars, and sometimes not-so-fast cars. And thanks to his mega TV contracts and amassed wealth, he has an extensive collection to prove that oil runs through his veins. His website, Jay Leno's Garage, has the complete list with details and separated by categories. But here are 5 of the coolest cars that The Tonight Show’s front man owns.

1. Lamborghini Countach

Year: 1986Why it's a treasure: "I never want to own a Lamborghini", said nobody. Its design and status were a hit from the seventies through to the late nineties. It truly is a dream car.

2. Ecojet

Year: 2006Why it's a treasure: This car was the child of a collaboration between General Motor’s Design Team and Jay Leno himself to prove that fast cars didn’t need to be polluting tree-killers.

3. Fiat Topolino

Year: 1937.Why it's a treasure: Aside from having exquisite and eccentric design, one of its biggest USP's was its frugality... 47mpg! Today, it’s not exactly a fast car, but who cares?

4. Mercedes 300SL Gullwing

Year: 1955Why it's a treasure: Objectively, the 300SL is an absolute beaut. It’s something that James Bond would choose, so it's no surprise Leno decided to splurge on one? Leno kept the outside of the car the same but changed certain parts of the engine, so he could drive it and not think about the potential damage.

5. Stanley Steamer

Year: 1909Why it's a treasure: It’s an impressive car because it doesn't run on regular old V-power, but steam, and steam alone. To get this car started, you'll need to wait 30 minutes, but once it's all steamed up, it truly is epic.
