I've just noticed that it doesn't have any air vents either?

it has window vents, but indeed, the rest looks missing, or it comes from under the dash...

if you zoom in on the pics, especially the interior and look at the dash board it is a total mess. I'd be amazed if that sells. I was looking at this

and thought how nice unmolested original ones are. I would prefer that over these Frankenstein creations.

Agreed a bit of a retrim around the gauges and the horizontal dash trim panel back to factory original would be needed. Easily sorted.

true but you don't think that for £110K they would have already been on top of that?

Looks great, and well put together, not sure I could live with the supercharger chipping noise.
(Or the £400k price tag)

It really does look great doesn't it. Best of the non-Singer bunch I reckon. Yep that chipping noise would do my head in. I can't see how that is appealing at all other than maybe for the first 5 mins.

How do you like them apples for £60K?

ow, that looks like a nice hotrod on such porsche, only that original interior is a bit to much, I would have put in some old porsche carrera-ish bucketseats, other steering and would try to give the dash a bit more classic looks.

The Harry and Meghan of resto backdates that 356 abhorration.
Ghastly

Needs a Momo and some buckets and most importantly a proper engine - either some type of GT3 engine or maybe a Turbo engine - then I could get on board with it

The exterior wouldn't bee too bad if the roof wasn't so out of proportion, and the awful scuttle / windscreen arrangement.

But that 'Bad Trip' spec interior... jeezus

It's at Autosport International this weekend in the kit car section (what have they got to do with motorsport?). The finish is really very good even if it looks bizarre.

This is tragic …
Those few that know what a Singer is, will immediately know this isn’t one. It is the same mentality of someone sticking an M3 badge on a 335d. Rare to see this at that price point.

A lot of money has gone into this and it probably is a good car to drive, but aesthetically it looks wrong in many details!
