Does anyone have any experience of these? I looked at one about 10 years ago but it was on a Q plate which at the money they were asking put me off, another one has come along that's interesting me a lot. Am I right in thinking that visually they're almost perfect?

Thanks, I'd never even heard of that company before now - some of their cars seem very advanced!

20 years ago is exactly when the one I'm looking at was built. I guess it's harmless to post it...

I'm only interested in it on aesthetics terms, rather than "I'm driving a Ferrari", as over the years I've been lucky enough to have access to nice cars - my father owned an original 246 and owned it for the same reason - but back then they weren't current day prices! I also appreciate I can get an okayish Porsche or a nice Caterham for the same price, so it's a bit mind boggling.

Thanks for your input guys - I'm going to park this idea, I'm lucky enough to have a 'toy' car I'll play with over the winter and see what Spring brings. Overall it's just too much money to still be a replica with question marks around it. I've seen a very nice MGR V8 for £8k less, so it brings things home a bit. I'll put this on the shelf for another 10 years!
