Look what we saw in Puerto Banus!

Not my video but its the same car we saw - too dark and too crowded for us to get decent pics at the time..

Felt a little bit sorry for all the Lambos and Fezzas that were COMPLETELY upstaged by this thing!!

Check out the shark fin!!

What do you do with the passenger cover if you happened to want to pick up a PB chick?

vikzE92 · 08-19-2010, 08:05 AM

that is a very nice way to listen to one of the best V8's ever made.

Interesting bit of extra info on the car:

"I was the body manufaturing project leader for this car, this was one of many special order cars with large amounts of visible carbon fibre (this was not in the original build plan).

The lay up of this particular car was very tricky to get the weave to match in a herringbone pattern all the way throught the car. The carbon was then masked and the paint applied to create the reveal, it was again a lot of work to get a good smooth edge on the paint and a nice lacquer finish across the bare carbon and paint surface.

The sharksfin was a later fitment due to the cars being ordered with satnav and stereos, when the original design did not have anything like this in the design, I know how much extra the client paid for this car but unfortunately am unable to tell you, but you would be able to buy a couple of nice norfolk motors (Lotus) plus some!

This car does look very good in the flesh, I remember the day Sir Stirlling came to view the car prior to launch and we were having the show car made and he came in and jingle jangled jimmy saville style his watch and bracelet all over the paint, how do you tell someone like that to not ruin your car?
