Rs500 rep
Not normally a fan of reps. But seen this on eBay and think it looks pretty decent. Also least it's based on a turbo and not a 1.6.

I am sure I saw a build on forum of a rs500 replica from an st but if I remember correct was built from a damaged car, not sure if this is the one, it was done very well though just if recorded would effect resale.

Looks odd to me don't know why, isn't a normal RS500 a darker colour? Like the RS500 is matte black, that looks more grey to me
