Want one soooo bad but if I sell the house, the 911, the Jag, everything else, still wouldn't be able to afford one!

But is it a Bentley or is it a Peterson?

Its an original 4.5 litre Bentley, and I shot that pic !

An amazing car and a wonderful photograph, Tim. Love both.

These Evo 8 FQ 400 are some cars to go, do they stand up to trackday abuse ?

On the subject of EVO 8's then I think they don't do well on track. Cooked brakes and my clutch only lasted 6 months from new.

Didn't TG do that thing with a Ford escort and the 400 to show its turbo lag?

Is that a P4 or a P3 Andy? I can never tell the difference.

Probably the most beautiful prototype endurance sportscars ever (sorry Porsche)

think that was the earlier FQ430, which was even more mental but impossible to live with.. the FQ400 was supposed to address the issues, but i dont think its better by that big of a margin!

theres a guy on the next street from me who has an FQ360 or something, and I was chatting to him a while ago. he did a track day in his and wasn't that impressed; as you said, the brakes cooked, although it was frickin' quick out of the corners and on the straights. totally murdered tyres; he went through two sets of R888's in a day!

they're fast, but by the time you finish modding the brakes to bring them upto scratch, you've spent a lot of money.. ..factor in the running costs and they're probably no cheaper than an R34 skyline to run

It's a 330 P4 James - I don't think any (original) P3's exist any more.

Definitely agree on it being possibly the most beautiful car ever built - I remember seeing one race at Brands Hatch back in the '80's when it was rumoured to be worth ~ £8 million.

The driver wasn't holding back & the sight/sound of it was unbelievable ...

Lawrence Stroll's P4 Spyder, 0856.

I'm delighted to say it will be in the UK in September at a public event (not Goodwood !)
