Can you give me the full picture for this car.  What is it for a point?

You're naughty

That's the Roding Roadster which was shown at the recent Frankfurt Motor Show

Correct.  I wasn't trying to be naughty, but on the first Press Day Roding stand at Frankfurt no one was allowed to take a photo of the complete car.  It is the first and only time that I've been told not to publisize a car, there was not brochure or press pack/images, and all photographers were told were they had to stand to get a photo of 50% of the car!  Last time I looked there were also no complete images of the car on Roding website.  A very odd way to launch a car, and on this basis, one that i guess will disappear into the histoty books very rapidly.  You did exceptionally well to get a photo of the whole car!!!

I had the same problems but did some paparazzi shots from beneath the curtain...

Quite an ugly piece of weird extravaganca, but maybe more than a handfull will find a buyer...

Here's a picture of the complete Roding.  Maybe it looks better in part than in whole!
