I want to be friends with Nelson.

All that effort and they fit a show cage?

That was a show cage? Looked like a decent welded job to me.

Seems to me like a decent welded job aswell! But the company making it has a 'I'm covering my backside' warning on it so you can't sue incase it nearly kills you.

It has a plaque on it saying its not for protection in the event of a roll over?

No getting away from that, but as long as it has been welded in properly to solid parts of the car then it will most obviously provide protection.

Probably just the company covering themselves.

A fantastically awesome job ruined by a show cage. Just why?

Clarkey · 3 Jun 2010 at 22:52

What have they done to it then? I can't be bothered to read all that. It looks awesome though.

I got annoyed at the way the guy wrote that.

"Once again IND's expert technicians painstakingly..."

Ok ok we get it. IND do awesome work, we got that after the 9th time you made that obvious, and the pictures spoke for themselves. Fantastic work and colour though

Not keen on the cage or all the carbon in the interior. Exterior looks nice and always nice to have 500+ bhp lol.

Fella should have just bought a Porsche and saved all that carry on.

Hxc · 3 Jun 2010 at 23:02

That colour is fantastic.

[TW]Fox · 3 Jun 2010 at 23:02

I dont understand the respray given Atlantis Blue is available as a factory order under BMW individual?

ZG002 · 3 Jun 2010 at 23:04

Available in the states do you think? I thought it would be a old colour that bmw don't do any more or something. That's truly crazy if it's a factory option.

He wanted one for the BMW show in California I think it was? Or LA, or where it was.

That was a couple of months away, and he would've had to have waited a year if he ordered a brand new one through BMW individual.

Basically, he can afford to pay more to have it now....so he did

In that case, Some people really do have too much money.

Also mentions that 'Nelson' owns 2 Veyrons, along with an Enzo and everything else.

So yep!

I skipped the first part.. and got to the pictures. With that much money he could have created something really special.. tbh he hasn't
