Upgraded my wording and dropped my price to try and get the Barchetta shifted in the coming months. After Jeff's respray and some mechanical fettling over the winter, it is in great shape again.
A lot of work has gone into that and it looks stunning. As we know these cars, there are a few detail points that one could carp about but overall I don't think it could be done for much less- that dashboard, the chrome wires and the stainless 4pipe exhaust, let alone the paint job- all are not cheap.
I think it must be Patton's car; the one that Chris refettled with Mini rear lights in place of the BMW 2002 ones. Expect to find some green and silver under that Connaught Green.

There are only a handful of these finished to this level, really worth the extra work and cost imo. Asking price isn't over the top if you consider the cost of other classics, especially the high end stuff !
Don't under sell your car Nick, wait a few weeks until the spring is here and you'll do well !
Very modest estimate but the 1.9 engine will restrict the appeal for many and hold the price down. The auction house might get into trouble from the F factory with their description.
