Spotted at Chester zoo yesterday by my lad...still laughing to myself now
I have seen some bad MR2 / Ferrari replicas but this one has to take the biscuit. Seats say Type X on them ...mmmm must be fast then
Rusting in all the usual places as I am sure is common with Ferrari bodies
I really like the interior conversion as well though like the leather gear knob with yellow stitching, the Ferrari badge on the center tunnel and the huge (I mean Huge! ) turbo badge on the steering wheel.
Sorry if this is your pride an joy but hats off to you if you did it for an expensive laugh

I thought I'd seen a rare Ferrari when an F40 LM drove through Leeds yesterday but I've never even seen photos of an F164 Berlinetta before.

That has got to be someone with a sense of humour, I hope
I must admit I do like MK1's in yellow, but that turbo badge is just hilarious

One of the many drawbacks to 'care in the community'
Re: Wicked sense or humour or sad deluded fool, you decide??
Although the MK1 can out handle a Ferrari 328, but hey lets put some Ferrari badges on it and no one will guess
Do you think if I whack some NASA badges on mine, people will call their mates to say they have just been overtaken by a Saturn 5 rocket

Your right but i doubt these are the comments he is after. We should change our line of comments in line with his expectations.
WOW....is it fast mate?
Re: Wicked sense or humour or sad deluded fool, you decide??
That's a pretty convincing replica. If you put some Toyota badges on it you'd never know that car started life as a Ferrari.

Strange....
I put the reg number into a vehicle check database and it returned the make as Toyota..??

Aye, minus the dodgy badges it doesn't look too bad!
Re: Wicked sense or humour or sad deluded fool, you decide??
That steering wheel badge is from the coilpack cover of an MA70 Supra turbo! What a
There's a chap in the states who built this thing called a "Lamarossa", based on a Supra, it's about a hundred times worse than the MR2 above and looks like a testarossa jelly mould gone wrong
