Pistonheads 10th Anniversary Rcf


Recommended Posts


I found it funny when they link the one for £28500 in their review 😄 even though arguably the one for £28995 is much better buy having TVD and Sunroof.

@Stuno1 As regards the wheels question you posed Stu my car goes in tomorrow to Lexus Cheltenham for a major service and some personalisation, my wheels have been diamond cut once before so I want to preserve 'the one more cut ' for the future so I'm having them fully stripped and powder coated in a dark Anthracite with a slight satin sheen to the surface I didn't want a glossy finish.

And the calipers are going from black to 'brembo Yellow' I'll post up a thread with lots of pics when I get her back.

Personally I would go blue callipers to tie it in to the f blue theme of the car. Definitely all dark wheels though. I can’t believe how much it changes them. I really don’t like them in srmtsndatd guise but dark I love them. I really don’t like the chrome badges, window trim or front grill smoke colour thing so they will all be going black as well.

Also, I’d be keen to hear how much they charge for caliper painting as it’s a very involved job. To do well they are removed, stripped and then painted before being reassembled.

@Stuno1 Stu I agree with you the ‘F’ Blue is the classic 1st choice and probably many on here would agree with us.

And I did consider it.......

But I am really fond of the ‘Brembo Yellow ‘ and have settled on that and matt black wheels.

They are going to do one wheel and one calliper and forward me some pics just to make sure, I’m happy with the look first.

Can’t you get some of your staff to carry the car out? Probably need about half your staff - say 30 to lift the RCF however 😜
