Why?
If you are serious about buying a CGT stick with the original. I've never been a fan of Gemballa styling at the best of times on anything

...Gemballas which are for sale, one of them is the 'Gold Edition' which is stunning...
I'm sorry but rofl

It's stunning in the same way that a marble bathroom with gold taps on a private 737 is also stunning. I guess all the important bits of CGT are still there that's it's still a great car; it just doesn't need vajazzling!

Have to admit that after looking at it again I fell out of love with the "gold" motif but still like the styling. As for buying one it will take a bit longer as am not in that league, I found £12K a year spend on my aircraft enough for one household and even this one goes next week.

The photos in the ad make that Ascot brown leather interior look quite similar to Terracotta wink

You scored 5/10 in your Man Maths test. Must try harder.

Sale of kidney/house/dog/wife/granny not sufficiently factored.

That is a really lovely looking car.

Sorry. You're absolutely right to correct me. The rest is grist to the mill though in the pursuit of the greater cause.
