With an exception for the top of the windscreen...

that 'corsica' is a truly elegant design.. its lines all 'fit' as a convertible..beautifully done.. all subjective of course..but for my eye, it looks far better then the standard 4 door saloon . As for the V12 chopped coupe that started this thread.. A complete hack job.. ghastly ...what happens to the top when one drives it at the speeds intended ?? Id' wager it would shred the convertible top.. its untidy, all out of proportion and decidedly amateur... whatever tosser conceived of this abomination needs to get a job more suitable for his skill set.. fixing bicycles might keep him out of trouble..

I agree this car does not look right....and at £37,500 ! oh dear even the wheels don't look like they belong to this car.

I am at present trying to pluck up courage to spend over £25K + trade in on a recent Merc to replace my 12 year old Jag.

No way I would spend even this on this concoction.

The wheels - called Kent alloys - are really a right one option by factory instead of painted or chromed steel wheels when the car was new.
