Default Ascari KZ1

Walked out of the office last night and it was pulled up right outside. Young bloke in nice shirt and tie sat in it on his waiting for someone..

Oh my friggin god!!

Absoluteley beautiful. Outstanding build quality, awesome interior.. Suprisingly quiet on tickover.

Made the other mayfair dosh look a little common.. Atons, Bentley, Ferrari...

I thought the car was free, you pay for the track space / corporate in the South of France isn't it?

Dunno - just saw that price somewhere..

So you buy a track and get a car free? Now that is clever marketing. If only all cars would come with their own track

Suddenly half the office were standing by the window.

Is it just the photos, or are they a really handsome car?

Bit like the Nobles, they're not overstyled, just functional.

I know the lamps are Peugeot, but they are well integrated.

Never heard of it, but it looks nice.
I wonder if your offices are close - can't be that many of them!

I wasn't aware that the Ascari cars were finished and signed off yet. Mostly carbon fibre AFAIK
