As i just received my monthly “auto rétro” magazine i found this creation which (as it’s a UK BASED COMPANY ) some here might know… it’s based on the NB (at least that’s what they used as a donnor car), looks great and is very expensive but stll…a bargain compared to the real Alfa Tipo…
I like it but beside the budget there’s no way to get this on the road in (one of?..) the worst petrolhead country in Europe; Belgium.

looks so goood! Some pics of the one in the magazine…which has been transformed a bit (roll cage delete) and that makes it look even better.
The only point of critisism i have is the dashboard (instrumentation) which is obviously …MX-5, they could have gone trough the effort to provide it with other more vintage instruments.
This one with the modified roll cage (and some other mods) and an extremely high finish level has a resale value of 60.000 eur.

The shift linkage looks, er, extremely painful looking
Fake exhausts
Hmm launch kits were £7500 plus VAT, not 2 years on, now £14,245. No recent press releases. They were supposed to do a race series around these in 2022. Did any race cars get built? I don’t recall anything happening. There was scepticism anything would happen.
One build thread;
