I cant see it selling at that price.

Sweet looking car, but I'm not sure that Prince Albert ranks up there with Princess Diana in the "make the thing I'm selling more appealling" stakes.

Nah ! I'll give it a miss - steering wheel on the wrong side .

 

[Baron_Samedi]

In some countries a driving a "wrong-sided steering wheel car" is taken as a sign of status....

Looks hideous. And I bet with an old 4sp auto - it won't actually be that quick - eg compared to an V8 kompressor, or 63 engine.

and if it breaks - then who's gonna fix it??

"Cost new: £374K" The Prince needs to call in The Fraud Squad

Stunning when new, passe after about 20 years, a celebrated legend in 20 years more

You might not be impressed with the car, but admire the passion needed to make it real.

 

[johnpidge]

Still horrid!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Baron_Samedi]

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder!

If you spent an unlimited (relatively) amount of money on a car, I am sure it would be unique to you and thus.... heinous to almost everyone else too

After all, if you don't have to care what people think, what stops your imagination going wild?

 

[st4]

its not as bad as some of the cars that make it to the middle east/high net worth. nice colour and mechanicals, shame about the spoilers

 

[crockers]

Nah ! I'll give it a miss - steering wheel on the wrong side .
