Looks to be in very fine fettle indeed, a lovely looking Rapide, and I fully agree that one can expect it to sell very quickly.

The body color has changed from green when last pictured in Germany a little while ago.

Yes, back to its factory colour. I don't like the hideous non-original headrests. But, that's an easy fix, of course, as is sorting out the wheel trim issue. It doesn't have a price tag yet. Bets?

Do you think the body color is now Caribbean Pear, which was original factory finish.

The fawn colored interior looks to be very nice, agreed about head rests

It could be (that was my first thought). But, on reflection (no pun intended) it may be several shades darker. Do you agree?

Wheel trims have been missing for awhile on this car, but are of course readily available today.

Nice to see, the drivers side door mirror removed, which spoiled the lines of the car.

Price will be interesting, my guess is somewhere in between LR129 and LR155...

The reason I queried the color, was due if my memory serves me correct to a nice DB5 or DB6 on the AMOC web-site, which seemed to be a shade or two lighter than this car ?

I had recently followed a thread on the colour choice of your own DB6 ...

Remind me, re your bracket?

On the colour front, re my DB6 colour search I ended up 'disbelieving' every photograph I saw. For some reason, the light to mid metallic blues just do not translate well in images.

if you scroll to the Special Motor cars for sale.

There is a picture of a much darker blue |Rapide. Is this the same car, or is it another ?

Yes indeed; he put it up a short while ago.
