Another one for Mr BobbyDazzler?

If Gordon Murray doesn't get there first. (He's retired his after using it as his daily)

I quite like those 😬 Didn't they have a prototype one for evaluation when these were in production, where they used two of the 700cc cylinder blocks to make a 1400cc V6, with 200 bhp? What a shame they decided not to go ahead with it ;)
 
I’m more than a bit gutted to be honest. I’ve been waiting for many years for a very low mileage example with perfect history to come on the market - ideally with glass rear canopy (Coupe) - and this one came on the market on Monday morning before last.

I was on holiday and Mrs D kept badgering me to phone or I’d regret it, and I dragged my feet thinking that there wouldn’t be a clamour. I called at lunchtime and 5 minutes prior the seller had promised to hold it it until the evening. I was plan B.

It was advertised for £10,750. Even though I really want it - it would be the perfect companion for my Mercedes-AMG ForFour Black Series Night Edition Premium Plus 125 Navi powered by Brabus - but psychologically I won’t pay the mark up.

A big part of my reluctance to phone straight away was because only the night before Mrs D had started to come round to another possible purchase and I was trying to test to make sure that she’d approve both cars. I think she would have too.

Not meant to be.

Thanks for blooming reminding me about it blooming @SpikeyMikey some blooming friend you have blooming turned out to blooming be. 😁

Brabus built ten and if I remember right they cost around £3m in total. They weren’t destined for the open market but who knows whether one or two may have made it into private hands.
 
Bobby Dazzler is more handsome looking than Gordan Murray. If you seen Bobby Dazzler in real life, you would have mistaken him for George Clooney and would have ask for an autograph 🙂

More George Michael dressed as a seedy LA cop than George Clooney 😁

You know you can always rely on me Mr D...........;)
 
Do Brabus make coffee machines...?
Not Brabus, but AMG have a collaboration with ECM. Deep pockets required though.
