Spyker Lavatory
Discussion
was heading back round the M25 on sunday and saw the white spyker which had been on display at Goodwood.
i know they are outclassed by most of the supercar breed, but what incredible road prescence! especially in white.
on the same drive back i saw a Merc SLR convertible (first thought was a chavved up SLK or SL) which was bland as you like. I also saw a black 458 which looked fantastic (like a baby Enzo), but I suspect they will be common as muck in due course.
so, on the lottery list for tonight, in addition to the Zonda amd Alfa SZ, goes the Spyker Khazi - a true piece of individuality.

Did you see the silver (sort of) old Spyker in the Cartier Style et Luxe or whatever it was called.i know they are outclassed by most of the supercar breed, but what incredible road prescence! especially in white.

Each to their own but I loved it. Was an (the?) original prototype and I found it fascinating to look over it. My pictures aren't great but click on the image to see more. Jesus!!

Don't get me wrong, I love the new cars, I cam dangerously close to buying one, but I couldn't see why that one was in the Style et Luxe.I admit I didn't know it was a prototype, but it looked like a shockingly bad kit car.
Interesting maybe, but why would you put that in there?
Mind you, did you see the Gibson? Why would you do THAT to an E Type??

I agree the enclosure it was in wasn't quite the ideal setting, but I can't think of any other place it would have fitted in either. I thought the craftmanship on a lot of the car was very good for a mule - the aluminium panels were nicely hand made for example, but the nasty wheels and poor window treatments obviously let it down.

Completely agree about the Gibson, can't say I'm the biggest fan of the E type (due to the comic book like proportions and inset wheels) but to hide it under a few flat sheets of fibreglass fashioned into a box hardly seems like the best way to improve it.
