As titled. Didn’t get any others as it was off like

a scalded cat. Anyone know if it’s genuine?

My Dad had an Alitalia liveried copy from Hawk with a real Ferrari engine in it ...from a 308 IIRC. I had toyed with building one this year with a V6 Alfa engine in it.

They look cool on the road as so little like them out there. The kit got a hammering by Clarkson on top gear.

I thought he was kind to the kit but less complimentary to Fred in a shed who built it. The kit version looks great Toby. Is there room in the fleet for another project?

Always room my boy, just don't tell the wife.

The current idea is to sell the Grey 1.9 Gti to make room for something else but I am in no rush until the 944 is running.

Might be genuine as registering kit cars in Europe is much tougher than here, if even possible.

Actually remember seeing one of these back in the day in the Welsh forests on the RAC IIRC. F'ing awesome!

Hawk Cars and Lister Bell both do replicas that look like the real thing but they are not cheap (mind you fraction of the cost of a gen one )

I think the Hawk one is pretty much a straight copy with mounds taken off the real one as Gerry's mate (Gerry owns hawk) had a real one iirc.
