I saw a Black turbo on the road the other night, first time I’ve seen one in as long as I can remember.
It’s over 10 years since I sold mine!

Pretty sure the guy who bought it still has it, and has now added a Testarossa to his fleet!

I remember almost buying your one from a dealer in Carnoustie, the one I did buy is still in my care and can be seen in some of Ali's pictures.

Don’t think it would have been mine as I bought it privately from a guy in Luton and sold it to the aforementioned gent from down south who still has it (RSG from the vx220.org if you’re on there).
There were another three Lightning Yellows in fife at the time though so you’re excused for getting confused!

It was not Craig, Scot or Daves LYs as they still had them, so must of been a 5th LY in Fife. Whoever it was I had a chat about the car at knochill many years ago.

The one at Carnoustie was mine (if it was for sale at Carnoustie Sports Cars), it wasn't a LY it was just a N/A yellow one
I think it eventually got sold to a chap in Dundee and is still local.

That is the one, had a nice exhaust and a hard top from memory.

Yup, that's the boy, it made way for a type 72 s2, which I should never have sold

Is that the one that is sometimes seen around the Victoria park area, though I've not seen it since last year.

Could well be, my yellow one is lurking in Dundee today
