To be brutally honest, the MEV Replicar 'Aston' wasn't the prettiest shape. The styling just somehow missed the mark for me, while the driving position also looked rather too high (I'll add some pics later, Photobucket seems to be having a day off today).

I guess the fusion of modern mechanicals with dubious 'classic' styling didn't appeal to either customers for classic replicas or edgy road-rockets which would explain the sale of the moulds and jigs, although their website still shows the kit to be available from them.
