I really want that lilac Nuova Giulia 1600.
How about that tricked paint job MV Agusta F4 1000 Tamburini (IIRC,
only 300 made)..dribble dribble..I bet that would sit better in
Catman's collection than those mid-life crisis machines he's got!!
;-) Mind you, it's probably worth more than most of the cars at
Automoto!
Which one's that?

Amateur..tssk! ;-)

Not the horribly 'bing' glitter one?

Underneath the glitter lies $42,695 worth of bike - when you could buy
one. Some real fancy tech as well..just ask Catman..

No good asking me, I'm not up on V tech. And it's nasty as well....

Does anyone know if the driver of

got home OK? I would swear that there is a horribly shunted one in a
garage just south of Lincoln. Nasty front-ended.

No idea, but it's a bloody disaster if it has been in a prang, 'cos I
*think* it's the only surviving example of a Farina Jowett Jupiter.

Looks like I may be right:

I hope that I am mistaken too.
Luckily the traffic was light and I slowed to 20 ish as we went by
and admired the car, but bewailed the damage. Unfortunately I did not
have the time to stop.
It does look very like the photo of the Farina :-(

Thank you Gunther. Very happy to hear this news.

I still have not had the time to go back and re-look at the broken
car. I will still try and find out what it actually is.
