Thanks, Roger. Iโ€™m really pleased with it, I did ponder a grey and a white one but thought the less seen colour could be fun ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ•บ

The cabs look great with the roof down - the coupes look great all the time! :lol:

Hi Eclipse83,
Great looking car, congratulations.
What were your 2 wheels, must have been a tough decision?

Hi, scharlton

Thanks!
I had a Ducati Panigale 959, then went to a more upright MV Augusta Brutale, then buckled under the pressure and sold up to move to 4 wheels ๐Ÿ‘. I think Iโ€™ll be happy.
Apart from less looks from the wife the car does make more sense to be honest, as I was very much a fair weather rider ๐Ÿ˜„.

Any ideas what this space is for? A 20p perhaps, a Werthers? It doesnโ€™t fit the key ๐Ÿ˜„

I believe it's the space where the button for the convertible roof folding/unfolding would be if your car was a convertible.

Ahhh, perfect - thanks!

I am sure they could of made it even a fraction more usable though ๐Ÿ˜„

Don't be silly now. That would have cost them valuable money and design time!
Just be happy you have somewhere to put your 20p!!

Next question ๐Ÿ‘.

When dropping the car in to Park, should I expect the handbrake to automatically engage too?
It may just be me but I tend to have to put it into P, then have to manually flip the parking brake switch tooโ€ฆwhich then lights up the P on the dash etc.
