    Looks very well done I have heard that they are going to be showing alot of the mcrae cars in the new transport museum in Glasgow when it opens next year so this may end up in there.

    Would be a real shame for it to be locked away in a museum!

    Needs to be somewhere where it will be run, gently round a track for all to enjoy!

    Number plates have a different style or lettering in that video aswell,

    Along with the bootlid on the video has no holes for the wiper or washer nozzle

    And it has white mudflaps on all 4 wheelarches, not juse 2 blue on the front

    And the windscreen on the replica had a tint on the top, whereas the original doesnt

    And in that video. it looks to have black wing mirror blanks on both sides, whereas on the "replica" its got a later spec mk1/mk2 mirror on the o/s, and on the n/s, a white blank/welded plate

    Little things like that... means im utter sad
