    Nice car, 70K is ok considering her beauty. The ancillary cost may go a bit high though, I would have to move from Ballymun flat to a house with a garage. :D

    €70k is outrageous for that, even though it looks really good, and I'm sure it has blistering performance.

    You could build one for less than half that. It's only a kit car, albeit a head turning one.

    Vintage tax and insurance is a nice bonus.

    The grill looks different in the picture on the left to the picture on the right?
    Maybe it's just the angle or intake changes.

    The grill is different and the mirrors are too, also just behind the side repeater there's a decal thats not on the one with the top on. i guess they used a stock photo to show it with the top off,

    Saw it last night at Top Gear Live with a big crowd around it.

    Lovely job, looks way better without the hardtop.
