Yep, see it a lot on the old stuff. They usually have loadsa tread on just to make you feel worse about binning 'em

Got an E-Type Jag here the same (tyres from mid '90s) and an old Rover 2000 which was like driving on black ice slightest sniff of damp.
Lethal when you don't plan it eh?

Loving the car though, looks a real gem
