welcome Phil

Hi Phil & welcome.

Car's looking well.
I like the fact that you've the built in fog, those horrible bolt on jobbies that are fitted to a lot of english cars spoil the lines...

Hey Phil welcome aboard. Nice car you got there. Lovin those wheels....

I'm with you there Phil. Imperial red looks fantastic when its clean and polished, cracking looking FTO.

Very rare colour - haven't ever seen it in the flesh - FTO looks very well indeed.

my fave colour FTO! thanks for all the comments guys. is there anywhere that tells us how many were made in each colour?

Here you go: http://www.verdigris.com.au/CompleteFTO.asp?aid=449

great find! thanks.

but if there were only 16400ish made, how come it says on there there are 36000?

The 16,000 is taken from here but doesn't take into account 1994 & 2000 production figures.

I wouldn't worry about it Phil, most of us can't speak the damn thing fluently despite 13 years of 'practice' at school (/hides in anticipation of a gaelgoiri backlash). Gaeilge forum anyone?

CJ

gotta say its a very useful forum on here.
