A mitsubishi lancer with racing strips! how can it be even an alternative to a muscle car? Did you just open this thread after watching some muscle car gangster movie?

To be fair, the loss of the old AL galleries does mean that a lot of old pics with the cars disappeared. I should update this gallery sometime http://preveen.multiply.com/photos/album/6/Sri_Lankan_

red Ferrari Mondial is owned by one of the biggest Japanese spare parts wholesaler in the country and he lives in Rosmead place. at the time it was brought to SL, it was not in running condition and it was sitting in the garage for years. i guess he either got it fixed finally or sold it to somebody who was keen enough to get it fixed.

The story was in the motormag some time ago. It changed hands as a "Toyota mr2 spider". So the bloke who restored it got it for a song!

No not the motormag. The "cars & gadgets" mag published and discontinued by well read ink press. Sandun de silva did the photo shoot. I still have the copy. The new owner didn't wish to be named, but stated that he bought it from a broker who had sold it as a Toyota mr2 spyder convertible. But that model mr2 wasn't a soft top. So this dude kept quiet and got it for a 6 figure sum.

And then restored it to concourse condition.

There are gems like this strewn all over colombo's garages. I've just found another (no, not ferrari, a jap monster) and will be giving it some tlc with a friend. More on that later ;)

Very close. ?

But it's one that We haven't seen on the roads for some time, one kept locked away and weathered by the sun. She's being released into the right hands soon, and will be "suneth-fied" to concourse condition in due time.

The dude buying it is camera shy, but to heck with it, I'll post a build thread. It's not everyday we get to live out our 16 year old wet dreams! ?

When someone says.... "Wasn't this car with Nigel Austin at some point ? This is posing a question as one is in doubt, I am pretty sure a lot of petrol heads here know Nigel Austin, and that's not name dropping although you may think it is..... As a matter of fact I do know him personally through work and he is a fine gentleman, unlike you.... :)

Anyway thank you to Andrew GTR for clarifying that....

IMO, if it was a question it should have been "so who owns/owned this....?" dont you think?

When you ask a rhetorical question expecting a "yes you're right" its not 'being in doubt'... its dropping a name...

As a matter of fact I do know him personally through work and he is a fine gentleman, unlike you.... :)

Now THAT's dropping a name. As for your first referrence
