Good eye on those errors gentlemen! Sales brochure says "convertible" (although it seems to be more of a roadster with the removable top)... but I agree, it should be in the Spyder/Roadster category like the Jalpa! Image Unavailable, Please Login
The brochure specification notes have a variety of descriptions: Italian - Spyder convertible a 2 posti French - Modele convertible a deux places English - Two seater, convertible German - Zwei-Sitzer mit abnehmbaren Dach In my earlier post I was referring to the descriptive text, "Una berlinetta dalle preztazioni superiori" and in English "A high performance berlinetta"...

Hello and thank you for your welcome to the forum! Can someone help me out, I am a silhouette owner looking to give some love back to it. My privileges are low since i am a new member and am not sure if i can post my email info on the forum. Currently looking for tires Pirelli P7 285/40 vr15 & 195/50 vr15 Thanks
Whereabouts are you and which number is it? Fronts are relatively straightward but recent rears are harder to find. I know two Yokohama rears available in UK.
Hello, and thanks for the quick reply, i am number 40086. I am in Europe but have no issue with sourcing from anywhere in the world if there is availability. Currently I am living in Greece but the car will most probably end up in the UK for the engine/subframe restoration. The ones you have in mind aren't the P7 (285/40 vr15) which i am definitely interested. And of course the fonts too! My first concern is to get the original P7's and then i might put some other treads just for the drive But for the P7's since they are soo hard to find I do not mind the wait as long as I finally get them. I would not mind if there was a group buy for reproducing them either, which was brought up at some time in this forum, which would be ideal for me Thanks (by the way if its allowed to post emails i can give you my personal email)
They do make new Pirelli p7 in 285 40 15 but they are not the original style. Pirelli NEW P7 Corsa Classic Tyre | Demon Tweeks It'll be hard to find some original P7 and they won't be road worthy. Best to source some recent Yokohama if you want to use it. Who do you plan to use to do the work? I use Colin Clark. Please post some pictures...
That's obvious, because this is the Corsa Version, not the regular P7. I had a set of Corsa on the front of my QV about 12 years back, they had already then nothing to do with the historic P7 pattern you're refering to: Lamborghini Countach #GLA12997 Anneau du Rhin 2004
Yup that is the pattern I am looking for. Btw when did the Countach switch from Michelin XWX, at the lp400s? I must say thats a beautiful Lambo you got there
Yup that will probably be the alternative tread for driving it around, but that elusive P7... That is the one i need! I have not decided yet on who will do the work, although I know Colins work i very good! As for picture, they will follow as soon as it cleans up a bit
I have P7 typres on the orginal wheels but use a repro set of wheels with Yokohamas for day to day use. I'm working on an article on the Silhouette and Colin Clarke at the moment, that should hit new stands in a month or so. Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
If I would take a guess I would say it is the 40030, that was delivered to seaside and now is in Japan. But that is relevant to when the picture was taken and when the silouette registry had the updates done. So dont take my word for it, but it is red, and by the looks of it has red interior
On a related note, I recently purchased this Silhouette kit. Is it based on a real car? I wasn't aware of any Silhouette ever having been raced. Jonathan Image Unavailable, Please Login
Just got my copy and see that the Silhouette article will be in the next edition... just a month to wait... Image Unavailable, Please Login
