Okay Kaz and development team, I don't know how we could use this in the game, but I love this vehicle. I'm thinking an "Alf Francis to Gerhard Berger Brenner Pass Challenge". You load up a Maserati 250F (painted of course, in 'Ecosse Blue' in Modena, and you must drive the Ecurie Ecosse Commer Transport over the Brenner Pass on your way to the Nurburgring.


BTW: the brakes go out half way down the descent. And you take turns, driving or sleeping in the 250F on the roof (the race cars shown in the photo are not Maseratis).

Or the "Channel Ferry Challenge". You start in the middle of London picking up tires from the BRP offices, then Stirling Moss encourages you to get the transporter to Dover in time to make the Channel Ferry so the cars can make it to LeMans in time for first practice. Jackie Stewart disproves your driving style, through out, as not smooth enough.

A bit like the BMC workshop bus which used to support the minis - shown here somewhere in Norway circa 1960.

Personally I would rather skip the buses and transporters and have an option of the Ecurrie Ecosse livery on the Jaguar E Type, Jaguar C Type and Jaguar D Type - please remember to vote for those three. They are significant cars and deserve to be in Gran Turismo - especially with a choice of genuine liveries.
 
I agree, but I like that BMC bus too. Back in the day, it wasn't just the drivers taking their lives in their hands.
