Crossed everything off my short-list and went for a wild-card entry, but what a stonking motor it is. Collect it next Wednesday.

Not an Ultima Can-Am
Not a Ferrari 550
Not a Porker Turbo or GT3
Not another Noble

Clues:
- 5.5ltr supercharged V8
- Convertible

And some along to the FF this Sunday so you can wave your arms about and describe it

The V12 Aston is 6.0 litres I think? Anyway, whatever it is, we look forward to seeing it

He doesn`t get it until next Wednesday so it may be a bit difficult to bring to TFF on Sunday!

Ah, but I was referring to other events.... BTW have you worked out what month you're in yet?

Yup, SL55 AMG. Too easy.

Black with bling wheels

Is that the one that sounds like a WII fighter plane when pushed?! Heard one recently and it sounds amazing!

Getting mixed up a tad perhaps ?

Its only TVR's that are pushed -- when busted
