Trackers being fitted today. It’s been hidden in my garage for two days waiting for theft cover!
I could do a thread but it’d literally be drove it, cleaned it, drove it, cleaned it I suspect.

Can't believe we've got this far and not even a picture of it? Or ANY pictures of LCs apart from the very first one come on people!

I think it's one of the best-looking modern cars and will 100% be looking at one when they come down in price in a few years. Only seen a couple on the road, one in yellow which looked epic.

Lovely machine, gorgeous lines!

I picked up my Green one last week. Have so far only driven about 30 km due to absence so looking forward to the weekend, despite the terrible weather here.

You filthly we!

If I hadn't gone black inspiration, (now black Supra) that's exactly what I was going to get!

That’s one of the best contrast combinations on the LC.
Well done sir.

[CharlesdeGaulle]

Thanks chaps. My choice was only ever going to be red or green as I think both look terrific. I'm not flashy enough for the properly lairy colours!

Do they do white or cream interior or just tan,red or black?

IIRC Launch Editions had white interiors, there is also an orange and purple interior that is stunning.

That's lovely. Steering wheels is in an odd location though..
Local dealer demo was green over tan - it's an epic combo, really metallic-ey in the sun.

Current Regatta one (I think that's what it's called) is white and navy with *white* carpets. Scary.
Original launch ltd editions were white, navy and tango orange - I've seen one in the flesh and they're sensational.
US currently has a Manhattanhenge option which is proper loopy - bright orange and black.
UK standard options are just tan or black - mine's black.

Sterring wheel is like that to let the driver exit I would have thought?
