Umm... thats a lot.. you realise its NOT a Mclaran F1???
Looks like its made of plastic!! It has no windows and needs the interior done.. in short this is a full scale model. Probably does not drive and if it does it will not have the right engine etc.

By the way it even says its a replica!!!

Really? It looks so authentic that it would be hard to tell the difference between that and a real one.
The seller has even kept the power to weight ratio up by not inserting windows!

I don't think you can put MCF1 in the same sentence as this .....yoke

A Nissan Micra was probably used as the donor car.

I don't know what scale he use though. Maybe he used one scale for the back, another one for the middle and another scale again for the front. It's so out of proportion. Is it a joke I wonder or does the person who made really think it's a good replica?

It's the most hideous joke of a replica I've ever seen. Straight from a cartoon if you ask me. Far too funny.

:eek:

How?
A modified micra/corsa/whatever surely isn't ever going to replicate the sound, the look or anything of a 630bhp 6L V12.
real Mclaren F1:-

The "you realise its NOT a Mclaran F1???" line gave me almost as much of a laugh as the car itself...

Would love to know what its based on...

The side doors like they are from the back of some estate car

well dah, but how many Irish people have heard a Mclaren F1 roaring down the m50

As far as I remember, there used to be Ferrari bodykits that you could put on a MR2, pretty convincing to the unknown

Thats not a bad replica kit for the MR2 actually!

Would fool most of the WOMEN :cool:

And a few blokes too :rolleyes:

Can you get a kit for the Focus to make it look like a HUMMER?? LOL

stratos

there use be a kit to make the tr7 look like aFerrari f40. I think they also made a kit to turn the f40 into a tr7. It sold better.

Thanks to a small group of people who know the tr7 is the best car in the world it's body is well catered for. strangley enough my body did not have the same support and went south rapidly, oh well, by the way that picture was taken 3 days after i finished converting my ferrari f40 with the tr7 body kit.
