wookiecj Posted February 9, 2011 Report Share Posted February 9, 2011 890 quid, and they couldn't even make it fit. Roger, like me, you are soooo 'yesterday'. I haven't seen any 'youngsters' recently whose clothes seem to fit properly. Maybe it starts with their brains... they don't seem to fit either!

ramjet Posted February 9, 2011 Report Share Posted February 9, 2011 If I paid 890 quid for a leather jacket, I'd have a fit.

Kimbers Posted February 9, 2011 Report Share Posted February 9, 2011 I have a jacket virtually identical to that, even down to the collar (it does fit though), Italian, brown, calf leather, bought by my wife from a top notch London shop, for my 40th birthday. £400 and I nearly choked at that price!

Jukka Posted February 9, 2011 Report Share Posted February 9, 2011 May be a fitting problem also. Also the price is much over limits. But I'am buried in the snow and bored. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simonb Posted February 9, 2011 Report Share Posted February 9, 2011 Those are established "fashion" brands Pitching in a car brand at a price much higher than comparable official Ferrari merchandise is either very brave or very stupid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

73JPS Posted February 26, 2011 Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 Well... I love that leather jacket. And since I have more money than brains, I will probably buy one, perhaps as a reward to myself if I ever lose some weight. And for the record: I don't have much money.

rogerch Posted February 26, 2011 Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 Hang on Bibs, I've got an idea. Now see there's this geezer over in Korea, and he's knokin' out these brown leather jackets see. real cheap an' all. (they look good honest) Now see I could get a couple a' dozen, now so happens I got a few of them cloth Lotus badges, and as yer know I got a sewin' machine. I could knock these out over to you real cheap, you could flog 'em off in yer shop say 650 quid a piece, now that a big discount, and we could split the diif. 450 for me 200 for you, now I can't say fairer than can I ? We should keep this just between us right ? How about I put a few your way in time for Geneva, I mean there got a be some punters there right ? I mean if Dany looses this court case he might be glad to save a few sovs himself, right. Quote Life is like a sewer, what you get out of it, depends on what you put into it.

ramjet Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 I got an email about the Lotus Originals and thought to myself 'I'll have a peek at these driving gloves' 238GBP!!! Who are they trying to kid? If I'm spending $380 AUD it's going on parts for the car or oil or something like that. NOT a pair of gloves that don't even have fingers.
