It is crazy. I had a friend with a flip paint (Aurora was the colour) Alfa Romeo 166 - you couldn't repaint a small part of the car, it had to be at least the whole side of the car! Not sure I can afford to run a car with flip paint! A model on the other hand ... maybe!
Mark, the driver's side mirror glass is not within the frame and the drivers side windshield wiper, as you pointed out, is not flush. Unusual by Spark standards. Do love the car.
It's also missing an exhaust. They had twin pipes, and you can see the gap in the rear bodywork where it should be. Nice model. Good price, or perhaps not so much due to the exhaust. The vitesse version in the same paint colour is perfectly decent, as the paint is also spot on and the headlights are of a type that look decent even on a cheap version.
Thanks. I couldn't see it with my eyes, but yes, reviewing the video now, I see what you mean. Thanks. Yes, shame about the wiper, but that's clearly a design fault with the model.
Bah, I didn't see the lack of exhaust. Good point. People really don't describe their cars well. I took the trouble to review the advert for missing lights (common on some Spark models) and that was fine (considering there are so many separate light parts).
@@markporthouse you'll have to be on the lookout for some metallic found objects to install as the second exhaust! Or maybe a 3D printed bit? At least you didn't pay too much
Love that movie...gonna watch it again. It's amazing how they can bring these little cars to life.
I haven't seen it in years. I recall the Tuscan scenes being quite dramatic.
I love that color! It is so nice.
Looks a lot like my favorite color for Nissan GTR, the Midnight Purple.

@@Tom_Hadler very unusual by Spark standards.
