That F1 is ok, but it's not as good as a really decent, properly faithful reproduction.

Not a bad effort from what i can see, perhaps with paint you might be able to tell the difference.

Wonder how the guy managed to get the lines so accurate?

Something tells me he was being sarcastic.

That silver bullet is amazing, I can't stop laughing! Thank you so much for brightening up my afternoon.

I'll make the usual PH comment then.....


Why doesn't he just buy the real deal and not pretend to be something he isn't by driving a fake

I just laughed out loud at work at that. Hilarious.

Is it me or does the side profile look like a duck?

That is a real shocker, i would classify it as p!ss poor in fact!

I wonder what its based on? Anyone?

[Simond001]

Fair play to him.

Once painted I doubt many would know the difference if seen driving on the road.

eta what happened to that SLR Mercedes a guy built in his shed. Did it ever see the road?

Shame the PH journalist couldn't tell a V8 from a V12, poor motoring journalism.

Well, i count six inlet runners per side in the third pic. So to me it's a V12 too.

Thank God!!!

Well I suppose it almost looks the part.

Beyond that the state of the "workshop" & some of the metalwork on the floor could never tempt me to accept a lift in his Polski F1 -thanks anyway..

[TehMonkey]

He's forgotten to paint it.

Hahaha, brilliant! I thought I was missing something as I couldn't understand why people were saying it's a V8.

Not very tactful, but hilarious for it.

[angus54]

That Polish chap should hot foot it to the doors of Geely in China.

He's just the sort of chap they need to get knocking out copy cars....

[Family Guy]

Fair play i think it's a bloody good effort.

Should look blinding when it's painted

In defence of the accused, I'm pretty sure the images have changed. I'm sure when I first looked at this thread there was a picture of a V8 on an engine hoist. There is no such image now. Then again I may be going mad.

It's quite obviously a V12, how on earth could you get these mixed up:

BMW V8


BMW V12


There's quite clearly 12 intake pipes!
