Lambo Reventon in the UK
russbost - 7/12/10 at 03:25 PM

As per the title does anyone know of a reputable seller doing turnkey cars for the Reventon rebody on either MR2 or Boxster? I can find plenty in the US, but not UK? Would have to be a complete car as it's a friend of mine that's looking for one & he couldn't twiddle a spanner to save his life! (never mind twiddling fibreglass & filler!)

Extreme replicas in hull will have one soon.

They are brilliant to use.

I have a murci lp640 and a 360 Ferrari which are amazing quality.

Sorry all, but that's just sadder than a sack full of very sad things, either save up and buy a real one, or just get a locost and admit your a cheapskate like the rest of us

Kind of have to agree. Nooooooooooooooooo. Imagine what a prick you must look/feel when you start it up or otherwise have to admit it's fake. I found this quite funny...

*Engine Sound
Engine Sound as per original due to special modified exhaust that makes it sound like a real Reventon

LOL!

Er, each to his own and all that.

ive replied to the russ on ye questions.

i agree a little with people above but just cos you copy it doesnt mean you are being cheap.

if you use a space frame and a old m5 engine it will keep up the the original murci.

i cant afford a new one without selling up so im building a replica.

alot of people on here copy catterham 7's so how is this different.

anywhooooo.

its a replica.

plus the m5 engine with the lp640 exhaust and a little extra brake horse sounds very simular to the original which i know cos ive had it sat next to the original and the only difference is the lambo revs quicker.....
