Evening all

First post in this section, so go easy on me eh...!

I have been asked to sell a car on behalf of a client.

I know it's some sort of special edition, I'd describe it as ''the one which the bloke with the diamonds in his face had in the bond film when fighting the Vanquish on ice''

It's a 53 plate, I believe it to be an XKR 440 Tornado Convertible and has split rims and special green paint....

Does this sound right? I'll try to post some photos from when I detailed it last year....


Many thanks in advance

Cheers - Nick.

Sounds like a Paramount or Racing Green Cars conversion

To me looks like a standard XKR with BBS wheels and an Arden kit on it? If it is a Racing Green Tornado it would have their front bumper on it with water methanol injection (big aluminium tank in the boot)

Not particularly special. It is not the right colour to be a Bond car clone and the body kit is wrong too. It might be a Racing Green conversion and you could check with Racing Green for some history but it might just have a body kit and exhaust. The modifications may have cost a fortune but they will not add that much at resale unless you find someone who wants them. My estimate £20-25K depending on mileage mods etc.
