As far as I'm aware my old car remains dead.

The other shot silk V8 saloon I am aware of is David Sharples old car - which lives somewhere around Gloucestershire. Back in 2007 that had circa 30k on the clock and had lived a hard life.

Yeah-small world, but you'd think someone, who'd weighed up all the odds of !)fuel economy. 2)tyre useage. 3) servicing frequency. And 4) Buying a strange Monogram colour, would also be a www.two-sixties.com maniac?;)

Some people just don't think that way. They have no interest in the computer or networking. No names no pack drill but a few people on here spent a few years on their own until either coming across an article or general chat at a garage.

Spread the word save the non converted. Go forth!!!!!

YES I BELIEVE!

Not if you include LHD. There was a LHD ZT-T in shot silk at the Geneva 2004 Show.

You've answered my next question!
When I bought the car I was told it was at the Geneva motor show.
I've looked at pictures of the show car but couldn't see if it was LHD or not! :(
