I also agree with the Buzz statement. Cheers.

The problem I've always had regards 'his' habit of giving two types of interview. When he talks to British journos, he hypes the good ol' AC connection, "without whom all this would never have been possible, yadda yadda" and then, just days later, will do AC down big-time to an American magazine ("winos under the bridge" (!!) and all that sh*t).

I also personally saw and heard him say a huge thank you to all the builders of replica Cobras since without their input and efforts in keeping the flame alive, the car would be lost and forgotten by now. And then he goes home to try to put them out of business. Puts a whole new twist on the term 'double standards'.

I also believe that you're never too old to stand back and take a fresh view of your life and achievements and look at the bigger picture. It would be wonderful if he could, but methinks he's just not that kind of character. I suspect that taking advice of any kind is pretty low on the list of priorities as well....
