Just thought I'd show you a few photos of my Barchetta Riviera.

Still haven't got used to the idea of strangers in the street shouting out "nice car mate" when I drive by!

She's a beauty. How long have you had her?

I've had her just since November last year. She is in first class condition and unmodified. Spent a bit of time and a little money on her, servicing, timing belt, rear bearings and improving a few bits and pieces which needed a little TLC. She is now running extremely well and is kept garaged (dry). Only going to use her on sunny days as she is a spare car bought just for that purpose. She is a little pampered to say the least!!

Re: Black Beauty

Superb looking B there. I love the interior. I am soon to re-do mine and yours gives me some great ideas.

Wish I had the criss-cross leather seats in black. Your B is in good shape
