INFINITI FX

When Infiniti announced it was launching a Sebastian Vettel edition of the FX SUV the F1 world champion was involved in the development process. Vettel actually has an FX50 as his personal car so he knew precisely what he wanted. Top priority was binning the 155mph limiter, so he could stretch its legs on the Autobahn. And Infiniti was confident a 186mph top speed was possible. A new bodykit was developed to reduce drag, then the V8's ECU was tweaked, which, with a freer-flowing exhaust, helps produce an extra 29bhp. Finally, plenty of carbon bodywork was added, which includes an all-new front grille, a very swoopy front apron, extended sills and a rear diffuser, complete with an F1-style central foglight. Plus this example comes with the two-piece roof spoiler that is not standard and costs £4,800 extra! Other changes include new 21-inch wheels that are 3.5kg lighter than the standard ones and the removal of the roof rails.

Inside, you get re-trimmed leather and Alcantara upholstery, finished off with purple stitching Infiniti’s signature colour, as well as neat-looking matt carbon fibre panels for the doors and centre console. If you would like more information or an opportunity to fire up the beefy 414bhp V8 and listen to the rumble erupts from the bespoke exhaust system please call, visit our website or simply call in. Too our knowledge this is 1 of only 6 in the UK and the only 1 currently available for sale!
