A limited-edition Roadster Coupé Racing edition (RCR) was released in 2005 in the UK. Only 50 in the world were made and featured all the Brabus trimmings plus special black Alcantara and leather seats with red diamond pattern stitching. The seats were not heated as they are in the main Brabus model. The black Alcantara and red stitching are also featured on the dash and door panels. Interior door handles and clock surrounds were finished in red to match the exterior paintwork. Each comes with a numbered plaque on the glovebox - stating the build number - RCR UK #/50.
These cars were finished in Ferrari Red with matching light surrounds and bumper sections, the Tridion safety cell being all silver. They were made to look like the V6 bi-turbo and came with a free optional SB2 power upgrade kit for the engine, which raised the standard 80bhp to 90bhp. The reason they were not fitted with the 101 PS engine is that the cars came off the production line in 2004 as normal 80 PS engine roadsters before being given the Brabus makeover. The SB2 upgrade was optional to allow customers the option for lower insurance and road tax/CO2 emissions. So, some RCRs did not have the SB2 upgrade carried out when new.
There were 50 right hand drive cars (RCR 90) built especially for the UK with the SB2 kit and 90hp.
This lovely example of this rare model is number 21 of 50 made in right hand drive and it is presented in the celebratory red/silver with black/red interior as stated above. The car comes with some service history with the last two services carried out by a Smart specialist in Guildford. It has a Thatcham alarm, two alarm fobs, two sets of keys and all the relevant handbooks which can be found in the folder. This superb Roadster coupé is great fun, practical and so cool! Enjoy!
