Isn't it 'resale' grey?

Looks stunning, congrats!

An enigmatic ride.

.... but in this case, well played OP! I nearly didn't click on the thread, glad I did. What a marvellous car, one of my all time fave curios.

Who designed it? It looks somewhat Italian from the front.

Oooh I love these. In.

They're good looking cars - and so rare I can recall only ever seeing one on the road in all the years since they were new. That was outside Piccadilly station in Manchester. It was dark blue and as I watched it trundle past an excited kid shouted out 'A Ferrari! A Ferrari!" at it. This was in the early/mid 1990s. I was a student at the time and ferociously hung over.

Eric Bitter apparently.

The Bitter CD is a lovely looking thing.

Edited to add: I've just visited the link in the post above. Those prices must be old - Bitters must be worth a lot more than that now, surely?

Great looking cars.

Whatever happened to Strela? He had a thread on one of these.

In fact, was this his car? There's an old thread from 2018 with a link to a Car&Classic ad for this very car.

It's a big town in the midlands. You may have seen it from the M6.

It is me. I was away in quarantine for about a year. The car has been undergoing lengthy renovations and is only just back on the road.

Excellent, really enjoyed your previous threads on this and the apricot (peach?) Mercedes.
