Ferrari 360 Spider "Recreation" 2003 - Not your normal Toyota based Ferrari kit car this superb recreation of a 360 Spider is powered by an all-aluminium Double Overhead Camshaft Toyota 3 litre V6 engine so it not only looks the part but sounds it as well. If thats not enough this engine was then tuned by "Rogue Motorsport" so thats looks, sound and performance to match all at a price that is a fraction of the original car it is styled after.
Built on a 2003 chassis the dimensions of the car are almost correct and much time and effort has gone into making this so. The Ferrari Rosso paintwork is very good with just a very minor mark here and there but only from use and certainly nothing that detracts from the car. Exterior lights are genuine Ferrari items. Inside the car you will see the same level of attention from the professionally trimmed tan leather interior complete with Ferrari dials and leather trimmed steering wheel to the door cards, even the under dash section and roll hoops been covered to match!
On the road the tuned V6 engine pulls cleanly and runs through a Toyota 5 speed gearbox which gives smooth selection and matches the power delivery perfectly, clutch action is light and smooth. Brakes and all other general mechanics on the car are stated as very good and there is currently an MOT through to May so ready to go.
It never fails to amaze us just how good these replica cars can be when built properly and they really dont get much better than this one. You have to ask if its the look of a car you fall for, why spend 100s of thousands when you can have all the looks and most of the performance (in the real world), for a small percentage of that? Being offered here for a fraction of this cars build costs but please note: The Personal plate in the pictures will be replaced with its original "03" plate so forms no part of this sale.
