I humbly stand corrected - the new Le Mans Special Edition (note they didn't mention that one with I handed over 0000s in options and took delivery) Sport has 20" alloys but also small black wheel arch extensions which look like they've been either glued on or screwed on.

4.8is of course has the wider rear haunches anyway but in its Le Mans Blue, is front splitter and 20" + is nappa/alcantara trim looks the biz the LE looks pretty good and also has trhe V8 grills which I paid for seperately and make a big difference.

Still prefer Estoril though and the black lower bumpers infinitely more practical for the daily workhorse..

What I didn't know was the is engines are in fact the Alpina v8s under license.. how cool is that!!
