Is that a serious question?
Genuine ones go for anything upto 100K
As to which is better, as a road car? probably this!

Personally wouldnt pay that much money just to make a scooby look different, but it is still kind of cool i reckon if people are into that sort of thing, cause at least it will have handling that comes close to justifying its looks unlike if it was based on a triump stag or something

If I had the money I'd have one, the looks and the sound of a proper rally car, and not likely to see many more on the road.
Questions I'd be asking is what does he do about the engine? is he qualified to make sure he's buying a good un? does he just leave the engine as it is or does it get a basic rebuild or freshen up? or are you just paying for the bodywork to be done?

But the engine is in the FRONT.
So its just a Scooby with an early 80s style bodykit
If the engine was where it should be I can see the attraction as itd be more of an intresting replica.
This one is barely 1 up from the Maestro based ones IMO

There's a slight difference in GRP and Carbon Kevlar
Body
The body was styled by Filippo Sapino of the famous Ghia Design Studios in Turin. Ford had no experience in working with the lightweight glass fibre necessary and turned to Reliant (of three wheeler fame) for the expertise. A production line was set up in Reliant's factory in Shenstone. What a contrast - helping to produce one of the quickest cars ever alongside some of the slowest cars ever! The Ford parts bin was raided for many ancillary parts with the rear lights being borrowed from the Sierra
