Looks like it's "twin" is for sale here-albeit priced a bit more optimistically!

That is rare to see....... 2 cars the same colour & vintage being slold at the same time, also the Pistonheads owner shares the same name as SMC's head buyer, who did or still has a V8.

Is it me or does the climate control look a different colour to the rest of the console?

Does doesn't it!
And someone's put that orrible shiney oily back to black stuff everywhere. YUK
Just makes the whole interior look worn & shiney & a bit Arthur Dailey IMO

It's worse than Arthur Daley. As if the paint colour wasn't bad enough, what's up with that appalling steering wheel?

Not many 75's and ZT's in Poseidon.

No wonder, it was a £2500 extra.

As for the steering wheel, a new one, about £100.

Looks quite nice!!

Here is a ZT in the same colour.

Steering wheel? - check out any three years or more ZT or 75 with the black oak dash and wheel. The wheels are all turning green from sunlight bleaching - quality eh

Mine is but I have a plan - a brand new wheel from Les sitting in the dark in a box

Don't fancy the Alcantara myself but it makes for a unique 75 V8.
