Bret, I think you've arrived at the wrong house, parked and parked on someones grass and cleaned your car. I'm 100% sure that's not your house :lol:

I do love your Diablo with Chesnut leather, why didn't more people have chessnut leather :cry:

Don't think they started putting it in the saloons & estates until that last year when they started with the chrome under-grill panel. It's a real shame because they had quite a good range of colours in the coupe interiors. If they'd offered it, the red leather would have looked quite good in a black Executive.

Is it beige carpet in the boot with chestnut leather?
