yep nice cars, always wanted a good replica but then with the flat 6.

a few years ago there were some online for sale, some pretty cheap say from 60k to say 120k euro
still a lot money for a replica, but say seen some nice ones for 85k euro.

but the last few years seen non, nothing! yeah there are now about 1 or 2 strange ones, not good ones but thats it, they are locked up (the nice replicas) in collections and if one of those at the time say a nice one from years back say 85k would come on sale, now its double the money.

A lot of the good reps now have the id of the originals,i am building a 99% accurate one with a 906 spec engine and 904 gearbox etc,Duel who made 5 very good copies,one sold early last year with a clm entry for 650k.They are now expensive to build like anything else if your going to do a good one,unlike a lot of ones that are available that are completely wrong.Great cars.

Duel in the Netherlands? yeah seen some online back then.
a bit like the UK Martin & Walker, gts but I tried the link I've saved long time ago, but its not working anymore, guess they are gone sadly, they made some lovely replica's ala original.

but... I would be happy with such Beck GTS 3.6+ from one of the 3 video's OP, sounds great as well

M&W are still going at the moment,thats what mine is,but he is not taking any more orders at the moment,but that may change in a year or two.
The beck is nothing like,heavy,longer and wider than the original and not a patch on a M&W.
Send me a pm some time if you are serious .
