Unusual Red 75 On Autotrader - Page 3

There is a local 2005 facelift in Sandhurst which is very clearly painted in early Wedgwood so anything is possible. The blue Top Gear James May car also lived somewhere around Yateley.

Hell, I like it and if I had the money I would probably buy it!

Why does LPG need a little black circle behind the wheel? I thought it was just using a different fuel? (Although I know the engine needs to be changed somehow)

The "little black circle" is the filler cap, this is where the lpg is put into separate lpg tank.

Inner wings are black by the looks of it. Maybe it was repainted then?..

Has traction control though.

You can see the black bodywork under the bonnet.

The underside of the bonnet has been sprayed red/pink

Also something else odd, it has union flag badges on the rear quarter finishers.

I noticed that but I assumed it had been cutaway for some LPG reason - wires/ pipes etc.- . It does look well finished though.

Me thinks a ZT development car has slipped out to the forecourt!

Certainly an interesting 75. As for the colour, red can easily show up very poor in photographs.
Is strange it has a facelift boot though.
