Right how about the green B5 saloon or sytners green B3
Put a deposit on the Green B5, still thinking about it.
Green B3, I just do not like the modern instrument layout, overload on information on dash, at my advanced age struggle to take it all in :D

Looks like it’s #240 that Brian has acquired. Surprising with its coal-hole black interior. :lol:

A Black interior is not my first choice, but I believe as there are only 21 UK versions left in the Country the choice is limited :D
It has some Red highlights, so it is not all doom Black.
The only other ones for sale at the moment are Silver :sick and White which I have had already in B3S guise.

Indeed, it isn't easy to be picky with so few built and when half of those have black leather in some form or other. Just made me smile as you are usually so disappointed with cars that have black interiors.

I know #297 got broken for parts after being impounded in Italy and #232 (the other Crimson Red E93) was exported a long time ago, not sure where to, but guessing Ireland.
