Rare Rolls-Royce Camargue: The Most Exclusive Coupe You've Never Heard Of | Jay Leno's Garage

[@AGlimpseInside]

The banter back-and-forth between Jay and Donald is why I turn into these episodes at this point. Truly good stuff.

[@stevemonkey6666]

The internet could easily use a Jay and Donald show 😁

[@WinterInTheForest]

Really? It's starting to be the reason I don't watch anymore.

[@OMGWTFLOLSMH]

I like Donald. Extremely articulate and very passionate about cars and their history. Great sense of humour too, which is why Jay gets along so well with him and is always busting his balls (or rather, ribbing him, as someone of distinction might say).

[@randythompson2681]

And yet there is a huge amount of respect between them

[@michaelericksen6340]

I also enjoy the banter between the two. I just wish Jay would allow Donald to finish his sentences.

[@benlipman239]

What an incredible experience it was to be featured alongside the legendary Jay Leno and the insightful Donald Osborne! A heartfelt thank you to both of you for including me and my beautiful Rare Rolls Royce Camargue in this unforgettable journey. The time spent together was exhilarating, and I'm truly grateful for the opportunity to share the spotlight with such an esteemed company. Looking forward to more exciting adventures in the future! - Ben Lipman @jayleno @donaldOsborne

I have one of these in a Burgundy Exterior color.. and a tan interior in 1/18. This.. is one of my cars where.. I looked n looked n looked at it and decided I dont like it. (Trying to figure out.. why.) Its not glamourous looking. Its not ornate like a Silver Shadow.. its a 70s Rolls. I still have problems saying the name correctly. When I finally turned around.. and found it and bought it.. it is just... right. its Cam-ar-gue. I keep switching the "r" before the m = Car-ma-gue. P.S DAMN, Jay always gets it right. Its Cam-ar-g (rest is silent) didnt know that.

You know Pop Pop is looking down smiling not to mention the satisfaction his grandmother is feeling giving it to the right person who appreciates it and has put it back on the road. Part of what makes this show so appealing is the differences in personalities and tastes in vehicles. One man's indifference is another man's love.

For the record 150k in 76 is actually worth over 825K in today's money. I know it's never talked about but 6 months rehab at any shop definitely exceeded the cars value just in repairs but in this case well worth it. Thanks again for another fun episode.

I agree 100% to your comment. I never saw Jay being so agressively negative, and that in front of of the young proud owner. The Spectre plays no role here, we have seen it enough in the video some weekds ago, and there was made enough publicity.Pointless to compare. The Garage videos have quite often shown very crappy cars, that I would not even sit in, but Jay each time tried to be nice.Here he was not, throwing every minute another negative point on the Camargue, comparing it to some midlevel american cars of the time.Jaleous to not have one? Something went very wrong here, and if I was Donald, I would have shut down the filming and go home.And as the owner of the very last built RHD drive DCamargue,and by the way a very close friend to Paolo Martin, I would have gone home with my car , latest at the stupid comment on the fuel trap.I am profoundly concerned by this behaviour and it changes a bit my opinion on Jay. Really sorry

[@JasonFlorida]

I felt this was unusual for Jay to be so negative and actually surprised. I'm not sure when this was filmed but I have to give Jay the benefit of the doubt... He wasn't horrible in any way and Jay has been going through a lot lately health wise between him and his wife. He is amazing for keeping on doing these videos for us all.

@@JasonFlorida I know all his trouble, and I am utterly sorry for that.But he always, without any exception, was nice to people,even terrible people sometimes, and on cars, and sometimes abolutely horrible ones as well. But here, he is simply nasty and mean,and he puts Donald in a position where he feels extremely uncomfortable, not to speak about the young owner, that in the car says suddenly"So you still hate it?".This is disrespectful from Jay, and if he hates the Camargue (I really do not car, I love mine), he should not make a show about it.And to show off his Spectre again was totally obsolete as well.

Totally agree with Donald about Italian design. The Pininfarina Camargue is truly a piece of art of its time

[@DenUitvreter]

Imagine how intimidating the commission must have been. "We want a very modern looking coupe but we keep the 1920s grille, it must be elegant and have the size of a yacht with a high roof line. It's going to be by far the most expensive RR and car in the world, it's has to have two great rear seats and be all out British excellence, so we called you Italians". I think they did brilliant. the square shapes are so subtly not straight but rounded, the line between the hood an fender and how that ends/starts in the head lights "block", the wheel flares are simply perfection. If I only had a front fender I would put that on a pedestal in my home. .

[@ingmarvanderhoek6314]

[@salar7735]

[@marinedrive5484]

It's what I call an aficionado's car. It was a departure from RR's usual design aesthetic with its squared-off lines. I would take it over Jay's new Spectre on looks alone. Lucky guy to inherit such a distinctive car.

[@bluesky9093]

What I found striking is the hood height on the Spectre when Donald was standing next to it. It’s nearly at chest level vs. Camargue is slightly below hip level. Our cars today have become so large that it makes no sense. There is something to be said about small proportions that are executed well in design, I think the tighter overall proportions show off the design cues better. That’s why I think car makers like Porsche were genius to maintain the silhouette of the 911, even though the modern 911 is larger it still shows off its design cues.

[@steveprevett]

I agree. The Camargue is far more elegant than the Spectre which is an over blown monster truck in comparison.

I remember in the 80's when no one wanted this model and could be had for basically almost nothing. Then the rarity came out and the prices skyrocketed.

[@DenUitvreter]

It's still very cheap relatively and I remember looking for one about 15-20 years ago when Silver Shadows in reasonable condition were at sale under 10.000 euros, the Camargues were nearly 30.000. Probably also because they were better kept, but also because they were rare.

[@JSDesign.Hongkong]

The Everflex (vinyl) roof was not specified as standard on Camargue.

What a great story and yes, the Camargue is not really Rolls Royce as some think of it, but it has grown on me significantly as I'm sure it has for many. Fun to watch Jay Leno backtracking, a viewer bonus. One of the Garage's best episodes and of course the chemistry between Jay and Donald is great. I am originally from Glasgow in Scotland (I live now in Dubai, where even a Spectre is nothing special) and often bemuse those witnessing a couple of fellow Scots 'warmly' greeting each other with such 'insults' often more cutting than Jays to Donald in language that would make a sailor blush. Just a great episode for so many reasons. Oh, and that car is off the charts in 'coolness' compared to a Mustang GT, what were you thinking uttering such nonsense, Jay?
