Spyker fans will be pleased to know that the C8 Aileron Spyder concept has made its UK debut at MPH The Prestige and Performance Motor Show at Earls Court in London. Designed in The Netherlands, this Spyker is one of the most exclusive cars in the world.
From its jet engine-inspired air intakes to its exterior mirrors mounted on two turbine fan blades and unique 10-blade 19-inch Rotorblade alloy wheels, the second-generation Spyker C-line sportscar is inspired by the jet turbine era of aviation. The C8 Aileron Spyder shares its all-aluminium space frame structure and new suspension system with the C8 Aileron coupe, while its aluminium superformed body – with minimal ‘shut’ lines – is finished by hand by expert craftsmen.
“The C8 Aileron Spyder sports a high-quality canvas soft-top with a glass rear windscreen, which retracts electro-hydraulically out of sight, ensuring a clean, undisturbed profile. Its aluminium tonneau, with two buttresses upholstered in quilted leather matching the car’s interior, proudly features the company’s motto ‘Nulla Tenaci Invia Est Via’: for the tenacious, no road is impassable. An aluminium luggage rack is mounted immediately behind the roll hoops, on which a purpose-designed wing-shaped aluminium, leather-trimmed luggage case can be strapped,” stated the press release.
The interior features Spyker’s trademark diamond-stitched quilted leather upholstery. The aviation theme continues with brushed aluminium dashboard and turbine-style air vents, while the polished aluminium Chronoswiss dash toggle switches and dials complement and the ultra-exclusive Spyker motoring experience.
