Yes it's a heinous crime to put electric into an E Type, my friend in England has two E Types and an S type all fully restored and covered over with dust sheets, he re built the engines himself with loving care and to replace them with electric would seriously do his head in.
Watched it all the way a couple of weeks back, very gritty and dark, similar to Nordic Noir genre crime movies, I felt a lot of the scenes were held by the camera for too long, for effect I suppose.
Just two weeks ago I test drove a Honda City from the BanAmpur Honda outlet onto Sukhumvit Road and then up the motoway link and my wife drove it back.
All the sensitive data was wiped and my guess, the drone pilot did not land gently on the water in a controlled glide but put it in the sea in a high speed vertical dive so there wont be very much left for them to collect.
