Hi there,

Noticed this posted over on PureGT, anyone in the market for a Murcielago Roadster then why not check out this one for sale at Tom Hartley.

309 miles covered in the 4 years since it was new and what a colour. Looks ok on a Nissan Micra special edition, but not sure about on a Murcie.

What do you reckon ??

needs a Genaddi-style 'roof'...

and black calipers as well...

otherwise it looks OK to me, although black or Reventón camo-green might be better!

I think it actually pulls that colour off ok. Looks good in the pictures.

309 miles? What kind of idot buys a car like that and never drives it? Assume that is a re-paint, or guess it could have been a special order.

Re-colour a right hooker if you like it.

That looks f*ing AWESOME!!!!

LOVE the colour, not keen on the (lack of) mileage!


I'm guessing the hugh price is due to the un-run in mileage!!

Your dark side is only a shade of grey.

Gorgeous colour. That is the nicest one I have seen.
There is one that lives near me, but the colour lets it down.
Only a Lambo could pull off that colour.cloud9

Is not me Andrew. Is one of the other wind up merchants. Listed as Sussex anyway. I'm in Hampshire.

I think a few TVR owners may disagree.

Paint may be an extra, but not necessarily a factory extra (although it could be). Is only £6K to re-colour a Murci Roadster anyway. Had some thoughts and quotes myself of going OTT, but would resist chromaflair as it's trying a bit too hard. I like the goldish/orange colour of that car in the photo where it's all that colour, but mutli-colours/changing effect for me distracts from the lines. You'd never do a car in static paint colours where one half is painted one colour and the wings painted different colours, yet from a given vantage point that's what you get.

That said, at least there are not too many chroma colours on that car and the flip is not too contrasty.

Looked at some of those metal-flake paints. Really loud, but again a bit OTT possibly.

Lovely car above though, shame it's LHD, assume it'll go overseas?

I believe that the gorgeous Diablo Roadster owned by 13TH is a chromaflare paint job.

It is a lovely looking car. Saw it near Wimbledon recently.
That paint job really works on the ungainly lines of the Roadster.
