    It looks that I can be a little more specific about the dates.

    I will be in the Netherlands the week of June 23 and the week of August 18. We don't have Victors agenda yet, so I cannot pin it down any further.

    I might be in Italy in June, but when I am in Holland I would love to join you Rijk. (It has already been 2 years ago since my last visit inside the factory).

    There will be more opportunities.

    The Florida dealer was picking 5 or 6 cars, but only Laviolettes. He was very picky about the details. He did not like the rivets below the trunk. He was worried that the people that would buy a Spyker would think that the car was a kit-car. Victor promised him to finish the cars he selected in stainless steel. Now, that is taking care of your customers.

    Always nice to have a tour at Spyker, I experienced it several times. I passed the factory a few days ago and now it's confirmed that there is another orange spyker in production. Things changed a lot since the last time I visited the factory!

    Good stuff

He thinks that in the Florida climate, you need a n enclosed air-conditioned car. He was picking a number of color combinations to pre-order for his dealership.
    Can you say how many he was ordering

    Mel,

    You are very welcome. It was good that Peter was taking care of the Florida dealer, so that you could get the full tour from Victor himself.

    Accidently we did get to hear some classified stuff, but we are tight lipped.

    Looks like you had a great time Mel! Good to see several Spykers being produced. Not only Spyders but Laviolettes as well. Excellent!
