There's a nice one with 20k miles, same colour, in the States for £115k at the mo.

I just don't understand the popularity of these things. In real life they look like a pretty roadster photocopied at 150%.
Everything is too big.
I suppose the real answer is the badge and the rarity.

A friend had a rarer Alpina model. A typical US boulevard cruiser ride and lots of scuttle shake. Wasn't impressed.

People who have the wherewithal to amass the means to spend £800k on car, are generally not tts.

An amazing sweeping generalisation, entirely dependent on your chosen definition of the word, of course!

ETA: I have known two. One is and one definitely isn't.

Stock image as I was driving, but spotted one of these on the M40 earlier;



Can't say I'd ever heard of Rezvani before but, as unnecessary dick extensions go, I weirdly quite liked it.

In Bradford right now a group of elite *ahem* "development engineers" are literally unzipping themselves at the sight of that.................

Paint it white, stick a red stripe down the roof and bonnet, Burberry seats and some nice 20inch rims, hey presto......pure class, people will think your proper rich bruv....

Their sports car is unusually attractive too.

That's him. A presser on.
Holy crap, that must have been a very uncool few seconds
I may be due some parrot but the Bentley in the video isn't "just like the one featured" - the Bentley in the video looks like a convertible?

There was certainly a Suspension of Disbelief requirement.

A few from London...

Saw this exact car on my jaunt to London last week...


Loads of supercars around, but the highlight was a Ferrari Dino between Kings Cross and Euston on Friday morning.

White is not a good choice for the Wraith! Makes it look ungainly
It looks ungainly in any colour combination.

Godawful thing.

I popped into the Koeniggsegg dealer in Sunningdale today (as you do :-) and spotted these two beauties. The black is an Agera RS and the silver a 1:1 which I was informed the owner had rejected an offer of $5.5 million for!

My all time favourite car, were the dealership quite accommodating with you having a look? I genuinely may consider a visit

This was the dealer

The guy was very pleasant indeed. Happy to let me drool over the cars and answer questions.

He was extremely knowledgeable and I’m sure would be the same to you.

I’ve never seen those cars in the flesh and they are really something.
