Adam spent a lot of money getting this perfect so anyone in the market should consider this one.

My car is exactly the same as that one and it doesn't have the Trident. BTW, It is an 04MY so it has moved on quite a bit from the original.

Adam had **** of a struggle with a dealer if I remember right over the service....But he has spent loads on it and it is a good one as Matt has said..........The pics are the notup to date as he now has the wheels in anthracite I believe.....Nice car.

Hi Guys,It also has anthracite colour alloys now as i got them done after the pictures and P zero all round.In order to make it salable and as it was exhibiting an almost worn clutch...
Its at Emblem with martin getting a new clutch and bearings etc..and new rear shoes for the handbrake (genuine parts),the beautiful larini are comming off (have a buyer from the forum waiting for them) and the originals are going back on .....but i will put the quicksilver stainless steel set in the boot for the new owner if i get any offers (other than Ranj wilson the oceanographer who likes the sound of the car from my description and wants me to remove it from sale and give him my bank account details so he can pay the asking price into my account as he wants it as a gift for his son LOL!!)
It will also have a annual service done.
If i were brutally honest i would say that it has a few stone chips to the front bonnet and bumper but not very many.
Disks and brakes are all good and as you know i spent a fair bit on the major 42,500 service.I have a new spare front disc that i bought just in case as it was a good price.
these first images and adverts are just testing the water as its a bit early at the moment.
I am getting it detailed and then will take some proper images in a few weeks and on a sunny day :)
I cant really budge on the price though as the works to be done are going to be approx £3k !
regards Adam

Oh and the interior of this car was custom designed regards dash and door pockets and stuff.
Its running the 4200 Trofeo engine and gearbox management as maranellos (original seller) offered the first owner an option at the time... the offer was sport(standard) or supersport(trofeo) the original purchaser went for the supersport Trofeo gearbox and engine managment i am told.
what this means i do not know. maybe the new owner would like to test it on the track and see if its any faster lol

Picked her up from Emblem today and drove it back along the A35 to Exeter.
I have to say that having a factory reset does improve the cars responsiveness dramatically!
I mean it was fast before bit with that gear selection issue I think it must have been in limp mode! It's very quick on acceleration now it can find its gears properly.
anyway I took a couple of snaps at Emblem and will be detailing the car a little more and taking some better ones with the D3s later in the week (or when the sun shines more like!)
This is the car with the anthracite 7 spoke alloys.
I have bought the new centre caps in aluminium silver as the silver matched the optional aluminium callipers and the small trident in the centre was the spit of the anthracite alloys colour wise.
It's all working perfectly again now and the journey back was a joy.
There was a potential buyer there when i collected it and he was very very keen.
I know this won't mean a thing until moneys in the bank ...but it's a genuine buyer with a genuine passion! (So if he does buy it, it's going to a good home and I will of course steer him towards the forum.)

I like them in anthracite myself (but you know what they say... a change is as good as a rest)
