Both owned by a guy in France and have been fully restored to the 1995 LeMans livery and looking absolutely fantastic. They have been seen at some of the recent Marcos events.

Just found this nestling out back at Austec Racing when I dropped the Cerb in this morning

That is the LM600 road car, the only one built and was originally blue - as shown by the Spark model. Let's just say that some of the owners decisions regarding the look of the car have somewhat polarised opinion!

I wouldn't know Jack, and by the sound of it I'm not sure I want to ask (however, I do like to be nosey lol)

I heard it had only 225bhp on the rolling road at emerald
But i think it looks like the owner is trying to sort that out but he is going to need a pocket full of cash.

I think you will find they are owned by a guy called Steve in the uk but he stores them at his house in France, very wealthy and very nice private equity guy
