Sorry,bit off topic.

Let's hope a Spyker shows up at the Nurburgring 24h at some moment.

@GTfour, where do you read anything about Coronol driving the Nurburgring 24h?

Stephan only said/thought that Coronel would be able to combine his WTCC and LMS calendar but there would be a clash in the LMS Nurburgring weekend.

But when I compare the two calendars I don't see a clash between them.

I was refering to the Nurburgring 24. Last years Coronel drove the race in one of the Zakspeed Vipers. I haven't checked yet if this race'll clash with any of his LMS or WTCC races,but I'm sure he' won't say no to a seat in that car again if he was invited and had the time.

No clashes whatsoever - well, WTCC Curitiba clashes with the Paul Ricard LMS test session, but that's all.

Testing at Vallelunga with Tom Coronel and Jarek Janis. Looks like the nose got some update. I think that also explains why there aren't any stickers on it! And the rear spoiler looks different (it isn't straight).

In two weeks time at the Geneva autoshow the plans for 2009 will be reveiled.

Oh such a lovely car....
I has been welded together with love.
and I am not saying that because I am dutch, but because it is true!
too bad about the sound though... It used to sound as if they threw some nails (spijkers is the dutch translation of that word) into the wastepipe.
Can't wait to see it again, a nice addition to the field of Porsches and Ferraris.

The orange, to me at least, looks more yellow than orange. I think they need to find a happy medium between the new orange (w/ blue) and the old orange (w/ silver) liveries.

great description of the old engine note.

I loved the C8's (I think that is what they were) at Sebring a few years ago.

Good news! Let's hope they did enough development work this winter. We knew they did 2 tests, so some work has been done.

I read something about a new rear axle? And let's hope they found a solution for the engine

The snoras car has definitely got yellow to my eyes, its just a darker, dirty shade of yellow. Im a big fan of the orange and silver but the current livery is also good, it means Snoras are bringing coin and if it helps Spyker improve then it is a very good livery indeed!!

Ha, the Snoras yellow is hardly dirty or mustard either (unless it is that horrible French's 'mustard'). Badger, can I have the number of your dealer?

Oi ..... the french know how to make decent mustard ..... not that crap you guys have in a squeezy bottle for hot dogs and has the look of a decent dump .

The best mustard happens to be Colmans English mustard ..... only one problem with it ..... ITS BLOODY ENGLISH !!!!

P.S. ..... The dealer ..... ..... yeah right .
