Greeni doppelganger - 90 V8 soft-top
So in the garden yesterday when I hear a V8 coming along the road, pop my head up to see a green 90 V8 whizz past, no roof just a roll cage, looked just like Greeni's 90! Were you in Suffolk yesterday or do you have a doppelganger? Sounded amazing and looked great but it just flashed by so didn't get a good look. James

I honestly can't recommend going 'soft top' enough, no door tops and the hood rolled up, it's just lovely.
The v8 burble all adds to the experience as well as craning people's necks, who hear it first.

Having driven behind Greeni"s V8 I can vouch for the burble, I had to turn the radio off just to listen. I have to admit to being a self confessed V8 nerd. Rolling with laughter Defender 90XS SW

One day a Greeni, one day. Think it would be perfect here in the Alps. Thumbs Up

Wonder what the DC would look like soft topped Whistle Monsieur Le Grenadier

There is nothing like the sound of a V8 I miss both of my previous V8 s. Don't make old people mad.
We don't like being old in the first place,
so it doesn't take much to Censored us off.
