Title: RHD Thema 8.32?
Post by: SanRemo78 on 26 August, 2013, 11:12:04 AM
Never knew they were made.... Converted perhaps?

It says in the description 'Thema WITH 8.32 engine', and that certainly fits the description;  the standard of the conversion so far doesn't seem to be very high and appears incomplete, with a lot of bits hanging around in the boot and the rear pop up spoiler taped down, as well as the plenum chamber cover missing in the engine compartment.
 As far as I know 8.32's were never produced in RHD or in white, while the interior is standard Thema and not Poltrano Frau leather with raised stitching. besides it missing other 8.32 features.
Another thing that always puzzles me is the craze for black wheels, I don't think generally they do anything for the appearance of a car, and particularily in this case.

Yes, I'd agree with all that Brian - "Thema with 8.32 engine"

I have the facility to check registration numbers, which will give me the chassis number. This was a standard 2.0 turbo. Obviously a conversion. The log book does contain the engine change.
Interesting, al the same.
