I know that. Was just correcting Glennyboys mate who said the ones in the PICS are all Pugs.

Toyota ones are far far closer and are at least rear engined like real deal.

To be honest I dont get it either... but they all seemed like a nice bunch the DNA boys.

It aint my cup of tea but if you at least built one on a mr2 turbo chassis and have it tuned to 400bhp it would be pritty cool to hear what you think is a ferrari boosting.

Not recognise the plate? It used to be on the 996

He said he wanted red and creme leather so he stood out more like the proper poser he is

That's why I was puzzled mate as I thought he had a blue one but the plate was on the red one. Hey it's Sunday and the brain isn't firing on all cylinders
