    Joe, it's widely known that they had a huge party in Loew's Hotel, some owners dancing in Lambo panties...

    Magazine dates can be useful in approximating the development timeline. By the end of July 1988 QV production has ended.

    This is one from a series of documented press images taken at the FIA pre-F1 Grand Prix race meeting, not at a party.

    Sounds like a lot of fun, but that's not where the press images were taken though.

    I wouldn't be so quick to judge, your pupils can be dilated if your brain is working hard or you are deep in thought, if you are captivated by something, or by a photographic flash. I note this recent image he sent me for use in last year's June 2017 Classic & Sportscar magazine article taken in his study at home shows dilated pupils also

    Joe - I believe that was Trevor B.'s car that crashed many years ago, I posted pictures of it when it was brand new many pages ago, I was 17 at the time. When it was new it was metallic red (from the factory).

    Perhaps that would have helped, the partying inference wasn't particularly appreciated, and not by me, you never know who is reading these posts ;)

    Here we go, from the other thread, so this must be the London Earls Court Motor Show Car!

    Interesting, so is the VIN known of this particular car? I like the register plate.
