Seems a bit odd to me... why would you put a Jag engine in a genuine Ferrari chassis? Plus, it doesn't mention a V5, so is it really kosher?

I'd guess that a Ferrari engine would cost ££££££ and I know a Jag engine costs £

Does seem a bit of an oddball project though - is there any bodywork with it Raz?

I don't really know many details on this but I believe that the original car was in a fire and the engine and bodywork were a total write off. The Jag engine was bought as an affordable replacement (ever tried to buy a new Ferrari engine? ) and other Jag parts have been installed for the same reason.

I have passed on the question about the V5 and will report back later.

*edit* It was imported and has a German log book. I have updated the eBay auction accordingly

Out of interest is a Jag v12 like that an ali or iron block?

Just curious about weight issues.

Cheers,
