Isn't that the rare 'Cosworth Astra'. I recon its just jealousy as you all will never own such a fine piece of automotive history.

Car's a bunch of arse, but it's a rare kit that DOES look good if it's finished properly.

It just reminded me of the types of cars you would see in Fast Car in the early 90's (funny how I thought it was worth buying with cars like that but now it's not work looking at). They used to be v highly finished with a lot of money spent on one. Old skool!
