Mate of mine had a Ferrari rep years ago based on a MK3 MR2. It looked OKISH to be fair but of course wore the Toyota mechanicals underneath. When another one of the lads was telling me a story about it he said it was insured for £60k.......

 

 

 

 

about twice the price of a genuine one at the time.

The last Aca classic I went to there was a 105TC.

Not as nice as that.

The high bidder must have returned the next day with a dustpan and brush to collect his new car.

'John Childs' Kenari (sticker just like Mrs DW's Nippa)

 

My Laurel came via John Childs back in 2008, when it was apparently part-ex'd against a Perodua. I didn't buy it directly from them, but did ring and have a pleasant chat with him.

Curious lack of mention about the batteries considering it's an electric vehicle; strong likelihood of them being completely fucked too(this era probably Nicad cells).
