and the answer is...

I prefer the T350R to the T350 and I'm seriously tempted, BUT the T440R is simply in another league.

So I've ordered a T440R ...

I thought you weren't going to order a T440?

A Ford GT40 was on your shopping list last?

PS. What colour are you going for?

The smart money would be on black , the car was born to be black IMHO.

Well, it's not a T440 it's more a T550
and it won't be black as you can't see the curves of the bodyshell and the air intakes in a dark colour.

So far I will go for:

1. iced titanium, black trim with red stitching, 19" anthracite alloys, unpainted clear carbon fibre roof, aero pack

2. mclaren orange, black trim with orange stitching, 19" anthracite alloys, unpainted clear carbon fibre roof, aero pack

What do you think ???

GT40 is still on order, but not confirmed yet...

What do you mean by a clear unpainted roof?

Transparent or just carbon fibre coloured?

What Aero pack!!?? Tell me more!

Like the McClaren Orange idea...
If not then Chameleon Orange with Black wheels and Orange calipers and unpainted roof...

Christof, it seems you may need bodo to run a few gimp photo images in your desired colour to me to help you make your mind up then [cue bodo].
Still think black is the colour, but of your selection, the <small>silver</small> wins for me, it looks good on the T350 IMHO

Had to buy a work car as swapped jobs!

T350 funded a Cooper S and a Caterham.

996 Turbo is on the radar but waiting for them to drop in the winter....
