There is a guy in stratford that has what i imagine started life out as a triumph, but has been made to look (kinda) like an F40. Anyone seen one of these before?

A friend took a couple on his phone and sent them to me, but they came out crap, but it looks as bad as you probably think it does.

That TR40 kit was developed by a Lincoln based Triumph car company called Rimmer brothers in the 80s. It was hated then and its hated even more now.
I owned TR8s for over 10 years, my last was a 5ltr twin turbo set up. The TR7/8 was a nice car as it was, then the TR40 body kit came along. Ridicules

The one i know of is a bit of a mess. I could detail it for him and tell people its an F40 and maybe they wont notice the difference lol.

Wow, you can hardly tell the difference.
