Hahaha thats a wind up surely? Has he done anything apart from slap some ferrari stickers on it?

Could only be worse if he'd just scribbled over hyundai and written "ferarey" in magic marker.

Hey! - It's got quad tail pipes (whether they're all connected to the exhaust system is a different matter though!)

I liked the part where he states that people take pictures of it wherever he goes! - He's really not grasped the concept that they are actually taking pictures because his car looks so ridiculous, has he?

Either those wheels are really cheap or that clutch is really pricey (too lazy to convert to see what it is in real money)

The clutch works out at @ £1600 (looks like whoever fitted his Hyundai clutch saw the Ferrari badges and charged him "Ferrari tax" for that job! ), and the wheels are @ £1000.

Something that is puzzling Me slightly though is why this car is in the Ferrari V8 section when it's delusional owner clearly thinks it's a V12 Ferrari! confused

Is the clutch a difficult job? Labour rates are very high in oz - so much so even relatively low skilled workers can afford to buy a home (madness right?) and skilled workers earn really good $$$. Not so many "backstreet" places.

That's nothing. I returned from Cuba yesterday where just last week we were lucky enough to have a ride in this. We had to negotiate hard to ensure we didn't end up in a more typical 'non-replica' version.

Well there are also some amazing recreations about. This one for example. You'd have to REALLY know your Vintage Ferrari's to not be fooled by this replica. The attention to detail is flawless....

That nearside door shutline is surely the craft of hundreds of hours work by a seasoned artisan straight from the Pininfarina workshop.
