Cotswold Water Park Number of views as of 14th March 2016 = 200. The Cotswold Water Park is a large lake system covering over 40 square miles of countryside in Wiltshire and Gloucestershire. Remarkably the lakes were only created in the last 50 years. Following extraction of gravel, the resultant pits filled naturally after works ceased in the early 1970s. Of the 140 plus lakes, 74 can be fished, and 10 are Sites of Special Scientific Interest. Some have been developed into lakeside developments of luxury homes. Others offer sailing and other water activities. Date: 14th February 2015

The Jaguar E-Type or the Jaguar XK-E (North American market) was manufactured by the British company Jaguar cars between 1961 and 1975 and was capable of 150 MPH. This Illustration is of the series 1, manufactured between 1961 and 1968. The Series 1 was available as a two seater Fixed Head Coupé and as a two seater convertible "roadster". A "2+2" or four-seater version of the coupé, with a lengthened wheelbase, was released several years later. On its release in 1961, Enzo Ferrari called it "the most beautiful car ever made"
