Brabus forfour today in Black only the second one I've seen on the road in six months. It was in the car park at Tescos anyway I got talking to the guy and he's only ever seen one silver one in two years.

He paid 18k for his new :eek:. He rekons most makes of supercars are more common, he's probably right I've seen 4 F430s, 7 Aston V8s and only 2 Brabus forfours.

Was it a Brabus though? There's loads of 44s in black, the Brabus has the twin exhaust lower suspension and 17" wheels.

I've seen one aswell, knew it was a brabus by the 17's. Lovely looking car on the outside but I'm not keen on the inside (If the inside was like a mini there would be one in my driveway!:D:D

I think Smart in Glasgow had quite a few in when I got mine. Quite a few standard forfours are running on the Brabus wheels the only real way to know is the exhaust single - forBore, twin Brabus :D

Another Brabus in black
These things must be as common as Minis.;)
I was parked next to one in the petrol station in Galashiels tonight on my way up the road. The car followed me up the road but it turned of at Peebles. It was a 55 plate.

Was it a Brabus forfour though, there's loads of roadsters about, but very few forfours......

And the only way to tell if its a real 'Brabus forfour' not just someone who's put the bodykit and wheels on is the twin exhaust. They only come in Black or Silver but you can get normal forfours in Brabus colours.

I'm not saying I doubt ya ;) but I've had mine for 6 months and I've seen loads of Brabus Lookylikes but only 2 pukka Brabus 44s in 6 months and over 20k miles of driving.

Yes it was definately a brabus fourfour. Like bigcol says the reason I knew it was one was due to your sig.
It was keeping up with my new CooperS anyway as I was giving it a bit of a rev going up the road.

The difference is mate I've not been on here saying my car's rarer than most supercars and then whinging like a girly when everyone points out you're talking keech! :)

Keech big guy?

I never said they were as rare as Supercars, but the guy who did has a point. How many have you seen Col? Have you seen an Aston, Porsche or a Ferrari in the last six months?

I admit you'll probably take more notice of a supercar, but I bet outside of a dealers you won't see many.

Big Col

I've not seen any Brabus fofours that I can remember mate but that's probably because I wouldn't even notice one if it was sitting right in front of me at the lights 'cos they don't exactly demand attention. A supercar does so I remember seeing them.

Well now you'll be looking but I still reckon you'll be lucky to see one, even in Glasgow were they sold 4 that I know of.
