I think that's an AS Motorsport recreation - a very fine thing, neverthelesshttp://www.asmotorsport.co.uk/index.html
The guys working on the car (where I've been having some work done on my Mondial) can confirm it is a real LM. Lovely piece of kit.
No it's not it's a modified road car
Easy way to spot the real thing is they have an extra (third) naca duct in the sill. The replicas never have this. A real one would also have plexi side windows.
The wing is an easy mod you just unbolt the original and put the replica LM wing between the endplates. Another giveaway between a replica and a real LM is a real LM would have a supporting spar in the center of the rear clam where the numberplate would normally go. The wing puts that much pressure on the rear clam at speed the clam would bend without the extra support. The replicas never have it.
There's lots of other ways to spot the difference like the gurney flap at the back, fixed headlights, various race paraphernalia like recovery points and air line connections and some pretty obvious differences if you look through the rear window but you can't see any of those from that pic.
They were actually 19 official factory built Michelotto LMs with 5 further GTE's there's also 27 further non official privater LM's
For reference a real LM

Is that an F40 LM?
Yes, yes it is. One of only 17 built, so a very rare sight!Easy way to spot the real thing is they have an extra (third) naca duct in the sill. The replicas never have this. A real one would also have plexi side windows.

Brilliant
You're paranoid enough to remove the plate on the BMW but clearly not considerate enough to remove the one from the car parked behind

Is this a real one? From an Aston run in Farsley, West Yorkshire last year to celebrate the old DB tractor factory in town that knocked out a few DB3s ...
TRS 262 - according to 'cartell.ie' it is a JAGUAR XJ6 3.4 AUTO. DVLA concurs... JAGUAR, 1985, Cylinder capacity 3442cc, GREY. Vehicle status = SORN in place, and an MOT that expires in June. So a replica? Looks like a good 'un though, and a lot of fun too.a few shots from yesterday, preston breakfast run up to the lakes with rocco and friends
