That’s a lot of car for £650. It’s probably a lot of problems too

Hmm, MOT check reveals it’s a bit corroded, as expected. Lovely colour scheme though.

Oh yes

Oh yes

That's a great colour scheme, so much better than standard red!

I forget what those final S8 editions were called (maybe Final Edition?) but they had some very Jobbo interior options. Some mentalists specced them with boring interiors but most seemed to be red or purple.

The purple's good but it looks odd with the grey It might work better with a more silver exterior (and the steering wheel etc in purple).

The Dino needs a 200 BRM for a daily.


Budget boxy Jobbo?

From memory they were Avus Silver which is a slightly dark silver - in the flesh they look great. The interiors - particularly the red - would look somewhat sudden irrespective of exterior paintwork though

I meant the grey in the interior, e.g. the seat controls. The leather always looks much brighter and shinier in pics, not that it wouldn't be the first thing people remark upon upon opening a door

Oooof

Not in love with the interior, but externally that looks fabulous.

That looks amazing. And I think the interior is a great decision.

Lovely F40, and I love a dark blue car.. I’m also a bit obsessed with green cars - even have an autotrader page open with 400bhp+ and green as the only options I’ve selected.

Unpopular opinion- I don’t like the 959

i can’t stand green cars - obviously there are exceptions, but in general it would be my last choice! That Porsche is awful and the rich chap on PH just did his testarossa in BRG and it looks all wrong to me!

I'll join you. I never understood the allure.

I love the 959 but it would have to be original and that colour isn't one of the normal factory options. The wheels only came in silver or white from the factory too (though I'm sure a sheikh could spec them whatever colour he wanted).

ETA: fuck me, now I've read the guff - they've taken it apart and reimagined it?! WTF? Ruined.
