John,

Beautiful, congratulations!

Is that Polar Silver? It's hard to tell from the pictures, as it looks to have a little more blue than my RSA. Sure looks good.

What makes you believe it has a Turbo S engine? Is the engine type stamped on the engine casing for a Turbo S engine. Is the option code for the Turbo S engine listed on the option codes sticker under the front boot lid or on the dealer/delivery document? BTW which Sultan?

What a pristine example- 10,000 miles!! Was it also stored inside an airtight bubble?

It will also show on the service book, under engine number (or option codes).

BTW I wonder what the interior is like. Hope not too much wood veneer! Joking, I'm sure the Sultan of Brunei has very subtle tastes....
