    @ Dutchdude: In previous brochures, Spyker most of the times described the VIN numbers of the cars that are on the photographs. Is this also the case with this Aileron brochure? Maybe all photographs are of the pre-production models #250 till #255 but maybe the one that is at the Geneva show is also in?
    As well as the brochure and the pricelist are on base of the white Aileron (at Geneva Autosalon). Almost all pictures are from that car (2 not). There is no description of a VIN number.
    I can ask if Spyker also has a digital bruchure to publish it on this forum.

      That C is in the position where normally the Z is i.e. C(oventry) instead of Z(eewolde) So that makes this the first non XL9 Spyker...

              Last Thursday I visited the Geneva Motorshow. Really missed Spyker this year and hope to see Hans and Peter next time I visit.

              I was invited by Morgan Cars and had a great time at their stand. I have always liked Morgans. Simply because these are cars you still have to work in. Funny thing is that I don't fit in the largest Morgan (the Aero Coupe), but I do fit in the 4/4 and even more surprising: I fit in the 3 wheeler. I am totally in love with the 3 wheeler and would love to own one.

              For the rest of the show I like the Fisker Karma more and more (nice attention for detail in the interior ). I have a bit of mixed feelings about the new Ferrari F12berlinetta. Great car, but some of the exterior design aspects are a bit over designed.

                  ... the Morgan is probably a lot of fun! Haven't taken the offer of test driving one yet... I am also quite sure it is very windy, wet, you will kiss mud and flies. If it is anywhere near the cornering ability of the "classic 3 wheeler" Morgan, it should beat every Ferrari in a hillclimb race! (But you need a second passenger of the same weight... )

                    That is one wild-looking car! I wonder how it drives? Someone drive one and let us know!

                          The design is inspirated by the famous Spitfire fighter plane of WWII, hence the (optional) graphics. But intrument cluster, switches and so on also hint to the Spitfire.

                          Here's Jay Leno driving the 3 Wheeler:

                            Jay gave it quite a good review -- I note that some of the things he liked about it are equally true of Spyker - the wind in your hair, having more fun at lower speeds, fewer tickets, and . . . the girls will come talk to you over the Ferrari owner.
