You DO realise it's not a Ferrari 430, don't you?

Are you sure it says Ferrari, however the back of it looks wrong as does the front and the inside and the sides, and that hand brake looks like a MR2 hand brake, hmmm maybe you are right

Ooh it's the 'Dave Jones' Kit...like Giorgio Armani.

I'm sure Dave wouldn't want his name associated with this rolling skip. Although i'm sure he's raking in the cash from these suckers...

Got to hand it to the bloke, as Ferrari replicas go that's not terrible!

The proportions are a bit wonky, but he's evaded the shonky 90's dash, obvious 4 pot through the back window and rubbish paint job that blight 99% of them!

Still though... how much of a bellend would you feel driving around in it? And twenty two grand!!!

Actually, from some angles it kind of looks okay but on the whole the proportions are all out. Rubbish. Probably looks like ste close up.

A four cylinder Ferrari? Haha...... nono

Really annoys me when people put these things in the Ferrari section of PH or Autotrader. It's not a bloody Ferrari, it's a Toyota in a body kit!!!

How the fk does that look like a "replica interior". It looks nothing like a F430 interior and instead looks like someones glued on a load of different parts from a bin.

Must have cost him at least the asking price for the full build:
"Turnkey car prices will depend very much on specification but a basic build will start at around £22K up to around £26K for our demo spec, plus your donor car."
Madness.
