Stupid question - but who's car was this? (EuroTec event 2010 - picture from Raphael)

What is that handle?!

I am glad you asked!! I was wondering exactly the same thing. I was there but I didn't notice. I am sure I would have noticed such a different handle?

May have been the prototype like on the picture, but I've seen at least one more D without any black striping on the parking lot..

I was speaking to him about his car, it's quite an early VIN, it did have a rubber strip on it when he got it but it wasn't a standard one like our ones have got, it was more like a Halfords after market one so he decided to do away with it. He also fabricated steel moulds to make all the engine hoses, and what he showed me looked quite impressive. I asked if he still had the moulds and he said he would be looking into getting some more run off for other members. We were chatting for quite a while and it turns out he likes camel toe like me, what a small world!!!!
