Think the estimate of £40-48K might be just a tad optimistic, in view of the current recession, and previous selling prices:

It may be a 4 banger has you call it but the engine in that car is phenomenal it was running really big horsepower and was detuned for the road not much would keep up with it. No it is not my car.

I'm quite surprised they don't cover the badges with yellow stickers for the publicity shots and the duration of the auction. Other threads on here have suggested Ferrari get heavy with replica owners badging their cars with original prancing horses...

Lovely car though, even with the four banger. However that's got to be an expensive build, so what would have been the on cost of sourcing a fezza V12 to go in I wonder, rather than the poky but wrong sounding cossie lump?

Looks great and the Cosworth lump's one of the truly great engines but I'm not sure the combination of the two does it for me. Owners preference I suppose. It'll certainly be much faster, at a given price point, with that engine than with an old Ferrari engine.
