Cool Best looking '10 in the UK!

This baby has just been imported and is now up for sale in the UK. Superb mods (apart from the Shelby and GT500 scripts....which would have to go). Look like Florida plates to me, although these will obviously be changed once the car is used on the road over here.

It's got 12000 miles on the clock and is up for £25,000..........which is roughly $40,000 (and that's not a bad price, as a brand new 2011 5.0 GT is about £38k or $60k!!)

That's a sharp looking ride but it was tainted I tell ya!

Who puts shelby emblems all over, especially the GT 500 sticker when it's just a regular GT? A poser, that's who. I wouldn't touch it. I'd strip all the GT500 crap off of it and then we could talk.

Beautiful!!! I bet it feels strange to drive an American car with left side steering over in England. My Son married a girl from England, they are going to visit there in a couple weeks

David.....it amazing how quickly you get used to driving LHD in this country. By the end of my first drive, it felt perfectly natural.

Where in the UK is your daughter-in-law from?

I think she was born in Ipswich (not sure on spelling) and also has family in Southampton.

beautiful car! I'm not usually a huge fan of the grabber blue, but it always seems to look different depending on the wheels, and the surroundings of the car. maybe it's just me

I suspect you're spot on with the tyre size (English spelling of "tire" in this thread, please ) as that exactly what I have on mine.

2005 in the 2010+ section (ducks for cover)

Spot on with the Ipswich spelling. That's about a 3 hour drive from here, but Southamption is only about an hour away

I wonder what this gorgeous gal would look like if it WAS a right-hand drive. Would the pedal designation be the same?

Whilst there are some good (expensive) RHD conversions there seem to be just as many poor ones in the UK.

TBH, LHD just isn't a problem....not for me, anyway.

Oh, and the pedals are in the same order (clutch left, brake middle, go pedal right) on a RHD car

Beats the crap out of my '62 Morris Minor I had when I was stationed in Brawdy, Wales back in the 80's...

Enough 'bout our English girls and their accents ;-)

Same fella selling the Grabber Blue car is now selling this beauty. He certainly knows how to choose a great stance and a great set of wheels

(apologies for a showing a 'pre 2010 in this section!)
