Nice. Real thing or replica?

Very nice. Their bonnet straps seem to be a bit more effective than mine :)

Have you seen how much they want for them straps... Close to £100! You could buy a couple of nice belts from TK Max and make them.

I says on their website (Mithrill racing) that it is a 'recreation'. I like that, its a more elegant description than 'replica'. Apparently suspension etc is the same as an original one so driving itmust be similar. It looked good from every angle, and I must now see the G46 in the flesh. You can drive it for a fee around the track at Goodwood, and I am tempted..........
