Your not suggesting.... No you can't be..
Josmith123, in some way connected with ARA RACING
Perish the thought

Far from it Mark,you old cynic.
I was astounded that someone looking for such an unusual car as the DBR2 should post a request in a forum dedicated to building locosts and then
receive a reply that there was one being launched.
Honest.

Ah, I see
ARA RACING must be incredibly astute to be able to anticipate a demand for such a rare car in advance, I bet josmith123 is delighted that they have
come to his rescue
I just love it when a plan comes together

I wonder if anyone has registered 'smuttygifts' as a website for people to buy humourus and unusual gifts?
Perhaps we should all take a look and see?
Or should we continue the search for an Aston Martin DBR2 Replica?

Aston Martin DBR2 Replica by ARA Racing
Hallo Guys ,
I saw your discussion about the Aston Martin DBR2 Replica. I bought one at ARA Racing but i can´t say anything good about that company. Be carefull
with that don´t send money to them these guys do frauds. I bought parts send the money but nothing was shipped just lies answers i´m running after my
money now for over 5 Month. As i offered an Offence to the Police about ARA Racing and Anthony Anstead they just answer via mail ( Andi the World did
not stop turning without your money ) .
So these guys do frauds and should not be in that business .
Be carefull do not work with them.
A.G.

I notice ARA RACING hasn't bothered to REGISTER AS A TRADER!
As far as I am aware these will only be sold as turn key cars and not kits. Or so the blurb on his web site went last year.
He used to produce Locost bits. I got a very nice ali tank off him, but had to send the bones, trailing arms and panhard rod back.
For those of you that don't know Ant, he told me that he was an ex-policeman, studying law, and the Locost parts that he sold, were out-sourced
and sold by him and that he gave that up to concentrate on the Aston..........

Ara Racing and frauds
Yes after i read all reports about ARA Racing from the past, i saw this happend not the first time that Anthony Anstead and ARA Racing do a crime like
this.
I saw the first comments are 2 Years ago, i´m just wondering why they can be still in the business.
I lost 170 pounds but i don´t give up, have been at the Police already to report an offence against Ara Racing and Anthony Anstead.I´ve someone has
the same problems let me know.

A S Motorsport DBR Le Mans replica
Hi,
I just dug up this thread whilst doing some Google research.
I am not surprised by the allegations of fraud against Mr Anstead. I have met quite a few unhappy customers and have heard some interesting
stories...
To bring the storey up to date a bit.
ARA Racing ceased trading in 2007 but before their demise I negotiated the purchase of the rights and moulds to the DBR project as well as some stock.
I also undertook to finish a part built alloy car and as a result I have detailed knowledge of the way ARA threw their cars together.
I set up A S Motorsport Ltd in 2007 to build and market the DBR replica. Further details are available at www.asmotorsport.co.uk
Regards,
Andrew Soar
