I was standing on EMS's forecourt chatting to the guy who owned the bittersweet ZT260 and was looking over Ralph's bittersweet TF thinking how striking it looked when I heard a female voice say 'how pretty' needless to say that broke my chain of thought and I immediately thought, no!

Isn't it funny how a few wrong words can destroy any thoughts you had!

(it was not the wife I might add!)

She must have spotted me then to say that

Got to love that colour...........its bright and cheerfull and certainly makes me smile. Downside is........I don't fit in the TF and I don't have that sort of money..........if I could fit in it and I did have that sort of money I would buy it though........bit of a bargain in my opinion. Give it a while and it will probably be the only tidy example left as I believe another owner takes it on track days and motorway bashing

I'm still not sure on the F/TF yet, enjoy tin tops too much at present, maybe when I am older and slower I might be tempted!

As for her spotting you..........'pretty thing'...........whatever!

Ralph and I are working on that..........it won't be an 'exact' copy but a general take on what it is.

If Ralph is still happy to proceed it will have the vent at the front (not the back as Ralphs is for extraction) and I aim to make it a shade taller overall (I am thinking induction) to allow for it to actually have a use rather than just being aesthetic.

If you are interested PM Ralph or myself and I will inform people when/if we have one ready and the prices which we do not know yet. IF these do become available they will only be available through EMS since it is Ralph who will make it possible.

Shall be interested to see a pic when you have yours done. Altho the vent at the rear does look good!

Well I have no intention of making Ralphs cars features 'common' so alterations to Ralphs bulge will need to be made........and although not drastic enough to ensure people can't get a perfect copy of Ralphs unique one.

Bear in mind that my car is Solar Red so it won't look no where near as good as a car with metallic or pearlescent paint or monogram for that matter.

I would definately have my bonnet done though if only to give an example to prospective purchasers
