That may well be one of 10 GT's that will stay in S.A.
What do you think of 10? Am I wrong. With R.350k you can buy a car and a half. :lol:

I agree with you on 10. only the die hard collectors will still keep a few. they are still leaving by the dozens.

Such thorough work, I'd almost feel bad to drive it, when finished.
