William, I have some Veglia instruments and also additional parts thereof if you describe to me exactly what you want.
Luckily my car B20 3615 (RPD 11E) has the later Jaeger instruments which I prefer.
Thanks Tony, I'll send you a email direct. William |

300,000euro is certainly very strong money for a Convertible, most recently have been aroung the 200,000 euro mark. Makes this Spider seem cheap at 350,000euro even with plenty of work to do. http://www.finecars.cc/en/detail/car/157788/index.html?no_cache=1&ret=63although at this price I would want an excellent finished car. |

A spyder in bits at 350k Euros - streuth. I know from experience reassembling a hand made car like this is no small task, maybe why they gave up. There seems to be parts from other cars mixed up with it too - poor value at that price!

The only thing not correct from the photos is that the top door trims have been covered in leather when they should be painted body colour.
Did they have carpets like that, should be rubber, no Ade?
Washer reservoir on firewall missing too I believe.
All the money = gotta be all the car!

Yes you are right Clive the footwells and bulkhead should be rubber mats, but at least the carpets are the right colour for the sills and prop shaft 'hump'. Yes the washer 'bottle' is missing too. I had to buy one for my B24, it was very expensive 15 years ago, so I dread to think what they cost now even if the are still available. Photo attached of washer bottle.

Yes last one of those I've seen was at Auto Epoca in Padova - with an autojumbler at 200 Euros...
Odd that somebody so experienced with Aurelias as the vendor appears to be, would make those trimming mistakes. Maybe it's the market that demands such things.

Ade,
you are correct.
I was mistaken by the year 1955 quoted by the dealer.
B24S-1424 is a 6th series, produced in 1957.
I have deleted my previous post.

Ade,
This 1st Series looks lovely. I wonder if it is as good as it sounds? And at what price? In my experience, the 1st Series cars are lighter and feel more nimble in day to day driving than the later more powerful cars (unless you are on an autostrada when the gearing and smaller engine become more apparent).
It would be nice to see some more photos of the car.
Not sure what role Tony Erker performs - the 2nd Series B20 project in Greece mentioned recently which he was involved in didnt look too expensive assuming it was basically complete. Has this sold yet?
Chris

Chris, The second series is still on Erker's web site. As to the price of the 1st Series B20, that's anyones guess, but I don't think it would be anyless than the most expensive B20s advertised elsewhere. 150,000euro ++? ........does look nice though!

I'd be quite happy to own any Aurelia whatever the series or model  But the series one is lovely. Brian 8227  |
