...in style all the way to the funeral!

Have a look at this! Lord Raglan was the patron of the Bugatti Owners' Club (Britain) for many years, and he had one of his nice cars at his memorial service... I haven't seen that before, and I am not even sure I would want to have my Spyker there...

OK, I haven't seen that trick before!

i like that idea but I don't think my sebring with the registration "Killer" would be appropriate at a funeral

mind you I've already chosen a hymn.....the classic monty python tune "always look on the bright side of life"

for those unfamiliar with the song:

You like black humour, don't you? The car below didn't have the number plate K17LER, nor did the accident kill anyone... Of course, you wouldn't bring that mess to the church!

Fortunately, this RHD car was driven on the continent. A very good Swedish friend of mine will get a new one, it seems! Guess what car it is!!!

The interior and shape are very reminiscent of the ferrari 575 I drove on the Viking Tour. But in this photo the body shell thats torn away looks like fibreglass so I'm not sure.

Actually 575 I drove had been driven off an alpine road last year and rebuilt at a cost of £75,000 !! It's second rebuild as the owners son had also crashed it before that. I'm happy to say I didn't make it a third.

Go on then, what is it?
