3yrs ish. Matty gets a lob on for them, I bet he's fuming now as they seem to be £10k+ more now for an early one a year down the line he mentioned them.

The new one is more normal than the first but given the tail lights on the current Prius it was never going to be that normal. Still, hydrogen car out in the wild 8-)

Yes, that was the exciting part. But why make it so hideous?

:lol: I've just checked and they've actually not changed that much. They never dropped much below £50k trade (for the V8) before the madness started and cheapest is £51k as it stands now.

I spotted another 928 (a 1989 S4) the other day whilst in a pub beer garden with Mr Choo. Sounded nice but needed paint work.
If you get all wobbly-lipped about the opinion of Internet strangers, maybe it's time to take a bath with the toaster as you'll never amount to sh1t anyway.

Spotted a 928 on the weekend. Visiting friends in Leicester we went for a walk and there were a lot of nice cars parked around there. 928 looked well used.

Went to a local car show for the first time in a couple of years, Countach was the absolute highlight.
I've never had the chance to check one out close up, those M6 bolts holding down the scoops are a delightful imperfection. 8-)

Great colour combo, but where's the dolly bird lying on the wing?
