I was dubious after the first pic and yes the whole lot are fakes.

Is there a club specifically for fake Ferraris ?

And how many of its members are on the sex offenders register?

In Italy, these people would (quite rightly) be locked up for what they've done, and that's before they have the chance to finger little boys.

Also has the cheek to have an ENZ[O] no plate.

It makes it real.

Before yesterday I'd never seen any of these in the metal and probably never will again, so I was proper chuffed.

This is a PORSCHE 944.

Apparently.

Ferrari have been litigious in the past haven't they? I can't remember if it was that just against the kit makers, or owners as well.

The F40 is so bad that I had to keep looking to try and work out what it was (supposed to be).

I'm still trying to work out what it is!

It's registered as a "Xillion Ferrari Rep", but there's not a lot of detail on those. From what I can find it's based on a Pontiac Fiero with the 2.8 V6, but I'm not sure since someone else said a first-gen RX-7. Whatever it is it's an absolute horror.

Oh, and here's are two more pictures from back in 2012. One is on Flickr.

What I found plus what ever is hiding underneath is 1985

Metal?

I nearly put 'flesh' by accident.

Must be members of the catholic church then huh?

I've always thought the genuine F40 looks like a crappy replica anyway so I find it hard to spot the difference.

I had to look several times. Just looks wrong.

I think it is a RX7? the 1st Generation?

You still haven't
But you've seen a poor approximation of them in the fibreglass.

The vinyl roof on the F40 wannabee classic.

[sclayto2]

If the F40 is the MR2 one from the 2013 Manchester Classic show, then you can still see the T-Bar panels underneath it.

I'm rather glad I'm not going crazy. I thought the F40 looked immediately wrong but couldn't put my finger on it... pleased my gut instinct was not wrong

Pretty sure it's a Fiero, apparently with a Chevy V8 according to this picture caption https://www.flickr.com/photos/imagetaker1/54716146...

And they were all stood around in Ferrari jackets discussing how they had genuine oil caps and similar
