I had a lotus 7 replica a few years back (when I was 19) , black arches / nose cone but the body work / bonnet was chrome...looked the mut’s (I thought anyway) but on a sunny day the glare off the bonnet was blinding!

I agree those cars do look good in aluminium/chrome. Here's a Mk IV I saw last year.

Mine was not as classic as that but still miss it!

That'll learn 'em

Sadly, it probably won't!

Just look on it as a tax on a stupid-looking car

......and stupid people.

on one hand well done to the salesman/person who persuaded the chump to part with £38k, just think of the nice merc that would have bought. On the other hand it's naff, but is it still naff to say naff?

Guess what? I walked past BMW Park Lane this evening, and they've got another one sitting in the showroom. This one (are you sitting down?) has a gold-tinted chrome wrap, and is again loaded with options – price tag: £38,999.

So, it's safe to assume the other one also had a wrap (as opposed to chrome paintwork), making the price even more remarkable. How many more of these monstrosities are they going to release into the community!

Not too many, one would hope. I believe the price tag and lack of Insurers willing to underwrite these abominations, will put paid to thier antics. We can only hope.!!!!!!!!!!!

Can lightning strike twice?...you can only hope not, but I'm sure the dealership thinks otherwise.
