Without seeing it, the only question I would have is the choice of yellow for the calipers. Is that really going to work with the blue?

I have seen this colour combo on 911 and IMO it works. However, in the big scheme of things I could always change them.............. Wanted to be a bit more daring and not play to safe!

congratulations Stewart, lucky bugger, you will need to come on a run out one day. Glad I was able to contribute to your vanquish fund biggrin

Feb must seem a long way away without your old V12V??

Congratulations! I respect your willingness to try something other than various shades of grey (like me).

Thanks for the reminder John.........:-)I am sure it will seem like a long time once the sun comes out - worth the wait though. Once here we can have a catch up.

Sounds great - looking forward to putting my spec together on Tuesday when I'm at the factory. I'm in London on Monday, so arranging to look around 'W-One' showroom.

Apart from the carbon roof, wheels and the front splitter (which granted you can do nothing about), that sounds like it's going to look great.

Not really, I love Cobalt blue, it's a great colour. I just hate black wheels and exposed carbon, I just think it will make it look a bit chavvy personally. With silver wheels and a painted roof then I think it would look great (except for that front splitter!).

I'm happy to be proven wrong when pics of it appear though smile

Surely you can spec them with a nice polished wood option for those sills instead of that (lovely!!) carbon fibre??!!
