Some interesting insights on
this boatshoes thread going back a few months. Some nice images of the carbon bits sans paint. For example:
Key is titanium with speedholes....

917 stylee.
That's what I love about that build is that Singer go their own way on much of the design whereas there is a next level nerdiness to all of the Tuthill build that really draws on the heritage of the brand.
Another example is that in a Singer they typically just bung on a Momo Prototipo wheel. Fine in itself but not nearly as cool as what Tuthill have done with their 'flax' carbon one. Amazingly you can buy some of this stuff!

That car would look the nuts in that translucent paint that Pagani do with the carbon weave showing through.

Love it. Makes me tingle more than any singer has. I guess it’s up to the customer how they spec it, it would be a hard choice whether to hide all the carbon but know it’s there, or make a feature of it. One of each I guess

I still prefer the looks of a singer, but the engineering of the Tuthill looks incredible.
One of each please.

Road tyres, loads of suspension travel and up on its toes when changing direction, it looks really balanced and well set up
The purple one looks awesome on the Boat Shoes thread.

Huge amounts of want for this. Singers are beautiful but this is even better IMO. Tuthill have nailed it. The engine is epic and looks like the driving experience is also.
Need to do the lottery

Yeah, I imagine he is bloody extatic!
The 288GTO is the one that stands out in that list for me - one hell of a collection.
