After many weeks of deliberation I have at last purchased the car of my dreams. Take delivery next week and am more excited than an excited thing on a very excited day.

Gorgeous! Black is definitely the correct colour, would look even lovelier on sport wheels though. More pics when it arrives please (assuming you can stop driving it).

Wanted the sports pack wheels, missed the one with them when deliberating over choice of colour. Will keep looking for a set at a decent price though.

They are gorgeous gorgeous cars.

One of the best looking cars ever made IMO.

No room in the back though (especially in the convertible) I tryed and failed hehe

When you're trundling down the road lining up an overtake, you hear the sound of that V12 roar as you're going for it..

Oh dear god.

Pick her up next week, have her back here for the weekend, used to a chim, hence my handle. Loved that car so much, was my first "real" car and taught me a few hard lessons about driving smile
