  • #011 - C8 Laviolette - Black/ Lipstick red

    Is this possibly #011? It doesn't seem to be #005, since it is an automatic....

    No that's #005 (early propellor steering wheel). Very old picture so not all pedals were installed (automatic is not possible on a SWB model).

        Yes; the two to the right are dummies (hence no license plates) and the one with the KW04 TZX plate is #015. That one is still in the Netherlands and seen here at the factory

          Well, in the video Sharon Stone did not use her left leg for the clutch

            Must be trickery as a normal gearbox hardly fits and is barely covered by the rear licenceplate holder. No way that an automatic transmission can be fitted into a SWB Spyker.

                  Spotted in Luxembourg but which one is it? #015 resides in The Netherlands and #011 in Japan I think?

                    It is the one Sharon used in the movie according to Hans van Rennes. And it resides in Luxemburg.

                      Pictures from the beginning when #011 was still a spyder (later converted to Laviolette for the movie Basic Instinct 2). Note the small rectangular grille under the normal grille is not there yet, making this a very early car. Also the silver dial plates indicate this.

                        Converted into a Laviolette for the movie Basic Instinct 2 but was unfortunately crashed on the very first day of shooting this movie.

                          Was repaired and eventually found her way to Korea. The small rectangular grille under the bigger normal one is now present. Unusual is the position of the middle airco vent though, never seen in this position on any other Spyker, which makes it easy to identify #011. The earlier silver dialplates have now been changed for the creme ones as used on later Spykers. Thanx to amzamz for providing the pictures (posted in another thread) and for providing this link But the picture of the engine is quite disturbing as it's different, and a normal engine used on later Spykers, from the pictures in the next post where the car is in Japan

                            Went from Korea to Japan where this Spyker still resides. Note the beautifull and brutal engine as further testmony of this being a very early car. Thanx to SpykerOwner for the pictures (posted in another thread)!
