Everybody can discuss, can argue, etc... But, well, in my opinion, and I am a "trad' mog" kind of guy, the Max' is maybe one on the most beautiful car of these last 20 years.
Period.

Believe so - isn't that the case with Aeroman's 'max? flag

Thanks H3, I must say that I, and many of the AeroMax owners, completely agree with you (and that includes comparing it with the SuperSports). smile

It's a really difficult act to follow, both for the marque - but also for young Matthew Humphries. flag

Completely agree Brian. To my eyes - and I have yet to see the car in the metal - the SuperSports
is nowhere near the style of the Aeromax which is an icon.uk

Yes, the illumination is through the plate. smile I seem to remember a TVR had the same system, was it the Cerbera?

MMC had fitted the current production plate when I came to collect it, but I asked them to put the original back on. Their fear was that it could be a problem when it comes to MOT time, but I have spoken to a friendly MOT garage and they can't forsee any problem. innocent grin2

Can't vouch for whether the Cerbera had rear number plate illuminated from behind but the Griffith certainly did except, if I'm not mistaken, for the last 100 run-out models.

Had my Griff mot'd in France (contrôle technique) with no problem. I seem to recall though in Germany they don't accept it.

The plus side is that the sealing is much better and the car is quieter at speed. drive


I agree with that - hood on my S4 is incredibly stiff to raise but watertight.
Don't think it would be at all possible to raise on the move

As an update - hood remains watertight but has loosened up a bit. umbrella
Mind you I have to have the roof down most of the time as the garage is so small that I cannot get out of the car with the roof up! sos

Oops, I know whose that is frown

Sounds cheap at £80k unless of course damage is more than superficial?
