He's living his dream

I wonder how this is news? Plenty of people in this country build replica supercars and get mocked for it rather than applauded (and for good reason as they often look terrible) to me this is no different.

Fair play, another excellent chinese knock-off!

OT: Why couldn't the telegraph get a snap of a Reventon to put in the article instead of an Aventador? Lame.

Big disappointment - before the video started I thought he'd built the orange one in the link

Think that may fail an MOT, no lights, windscreen for starters

Love the steering wheel/pedal shot.

Although it looks absolutely terrible, can't help but admire the guys spirit. Fair play to him I say.

Ah, China, the land of a million knock-offs.....

My kids picked up a toy phone thing from the pound shop place today - for some video thing they are doing. Anyway, looks like a Blackberry, has buttons like a Blackberry. Called a Blackbenny..... Which sums up China pretty much for me.



Living the dream.

Hold on, this isn't exactly the same as buying an mr2 and making it look like a 355 that melted in the sun. In rural china, having a car at all would be quite flash. The fact that he's made something from scratch himself, that fits his dream of something noone in rural china will ever see in the flesh, never mind buy is very commendable in itself.

IMO he's not doing it to show off (like mr355 man), but doing it for the love of cars. That is totally acceptible, even on PH.
