    Don't know the car but that is a beautiful colour. Fairly rare colour but I stand corrected on that.

    It seems to have been for sale with quite a few different dealers in the last couple of years.

    Re trimmed by O'Rorke and the seats put back to the original blue. At least the trimming should be spot on. My car was the same colour and trim when it left the factory.

    Perhaps too ambitiously priced?

    Looks the right colour to me, but I have not seen this car in person.
    I did try about 8 years ago when it was for sale at the Hairpin motor company, I wanted to see what this colour looked like in person before painting my car, but as I had told them this they did not get back to me despite my 4 phone calls to them!

    Maybe it is the colour that has put people off, I think its a bit wishy washy that is why I did not use it on my car.

    I think it was for sale in Australia in 2006

    We saw the car on Saturday and it presented very well indeed - close to immaculate, only let down by the fact that, although the interior had been completely re-trimmed, they had not done the dash, which was totally bald and looked rather shabby. While I appreciate that it is probably the original material, the rest of the interior is not, so I don't see the point in leaving the dash untouched while renewing the rest.

    The colour scheme is not to my taste - the exterior is too pale for my liking, and although the interior is very smart, I don't particularly like that shade of blue - but that is a personal thing and it is at least true to the original.

    I saw it down at a Goodwood breakfast a couple of years ago. I rather like the colour maybe because it is similar to the colour on Dad's old SWB.

    I know some of the paperwork for this car suggests otherwise, but it did, as Marcel Massini points out, originally have a dark blue interior. See attached picture taken by me in 2004.

    Later this interior was swapped with that of #15835 which had a black interior originally.
