I got ready to stick my head in a bucket as I clicked the link but is does not look too bad, sort of trying to be a GranCab with a hardtop roof I suppose, lets just hope its a wrap and the new owner likes red!

I am afraid I quite like it, it would have worked better with the boot and bonnet black as well.....I think

Bloody awful! Looks like a dreadful attempt to re-create the vinyl roofs popular in the 70s...

MAF, I just looked at it again and I cant believe I said it was not too bad, hangs head in shame.

makes me think of the two tone cars of the 1950's, some of them looked good, maybe I am the only one who thinks so!

It wouldn't be my choice but, I don't think it's too bad.

I'd like to be really antagonistic and say it looks really good but I can't. I don't like the look of this at all.

Not good IMHO and I like two-tone cars! Just seems to be no distinct cut-off for it, it just... stops for no reason.

Red and red not my thing either I'm afraid.

I happened to be in the Ferrari/Maserati dealership in Moscow (as one does) and saw a 612 Scaglietti ithat was argento azurro (light) blue over TDF (dark blue). It was done properly and was one of the most beautiful cars I had ever seen. Just looked stunning.

Its not a scheme of its time....distracts, doesn't add to.......would put me off buying it.

I dont think it looks bad, but I suspect the novely of it would wear off pretty quickly.
