probably better off asking that question in the kit car/replicas forum I'd guess?

depends on the build quality really some very and i mean very very good replicas can command that money but they have to be as close as perfect, yes the benefit is not having the service costs or the parts problems etc, yet you still have the problem of how good was the build? what state is the wiring in> fuel lines? suspension etc? personally until all those questions are answered would you be happy? i know i wouldnt, my esprit is meticulosly clean, the engine bay is spotless and you can see everything for inspection etc, i would want that of any kit car, also i personally would take it to someone to be professionally inspected.

i dont think those seats are right, i remember the countach seats being more slim, less padded and the centre padding being in square pads also.

he may think its worth that, but its only worth what someone will pay for it in the end, also there is the issue of is it registered right? if not then it can be refused at an mot station, there was a big write up on this on many kit car forums, there was an amnesty a while ago but its ended now and as such would need a new sva test to get it re-registered correctly otherwise its the "Q" plate.

apart from writing a whole load of invective-laden words along the lines of

what a load of censoredcensoredcensoredcensoredcensoredcensoredcensored

about this pile of ka-ka...

Is there any chance you could rename your thread

what's this lambo replicrap censoredcensoredcensored worth apart from about £3.16 and a packet of very cheap fag baccy?


Why can't people just build there own cars if that's what they want to do - why build dire piles of bcensoredkyscensoredtwcensoredk like this????

and I really hope you aren't really going to take it as part-ex for your Ferrari!

argh... what a dire end to a lovely sunny day!!

other thing is the rear lights look odd, the engine is only going to be a rover v8 probably, good engines in themselves but not for this, i would expect something like an eidlebrock v8 in there at least for the real pull and power. the dials are not lambo dials, most builders wouldnt use anything other than real lambo dials, momo pedals for gods sake!! non genuine steering wheel.. list goes on.. its all a bit wierd really.

I think Steven F is just showing what he has been offered perhaps with his tongue in his cheak.

Please tell me this is true because you want your head examining if you are thinking of swapping a genuine Ferrari for a replica anything!

I'd rather have a "shitty replica" than some boring Eurobox... rolleyes

Not all kits/replicas are pieces of junk, and this one looks pretty good - at least it's not based on an MX-5! hehe

Even if it is a good one though, I still wouldn't take it for that F512M cloud9 Must. not. be. tempted.

The OP's a trader right?

If so, the Ferrari 512M is surplus to requirements, the cash is being put together to fund the 430 Scud purchase, he can do a deal on the replica and get some mug to buy it afterwards for a profit then why not?

I don't think it's just a straight swap deal with the extra cash going to him.

TBH Steve, just looks like one problem solved by another problem.

I can't see the replica being easy to shift and as your in the trade I'd have thought you'd have know that.

I am sure we can get you some finance for it, the rag and bone man will be along shortly........hehe

Sounds very dodgy, especially when its an extra 10K for the turbo kit to be included. Theres something not right about it.... especially when he cant even spell tread!
