As I already said on your facebook picture, it is a superb car but the chrome wrap devalues it by about Ł100k IMO

I don't think it is a wrap. There is a technique of painting a car with a special white paint and then with some special lacquer applied it reacts with the paint and creates the chrome effect. Some bloke in Italy developed it I think.

Agreed. How to spoil a fantastic car and spend a fortune at the same time - more money than sense IMO.
