BTCC Race-car Replica

[speedy king]

There is a Astra 888 in Norwich, and i saw one leaving Brands Hatch last year going along the motorway

This thread is about ST lookalikes. I also started a thread about used ST cars for sale a while back. Can anyone dig up that thread? =)

At the locAL nissan dealer there was a cool red primera with full 98 stickers. Week later the dealer stripped the stickers off it.

Is that one still doing the rounds? I remember seeing it at Thruxton in 97. The huge clearance between the tyres and the wheelarch made it look very strange. Probably have a pic of it somewhere.

It turned up again in 1999 at a Peugeot dealer and was advertised for several months in Auto Trader - http://www.redshoes.demon.co.uk/images/Peugeot406.jpg I even had an email from the dealer once asking if I would advertise it on my website.

Or have you ever considered it? I am interested in hearing from anyone who has.

Also, where do the replica promotional vehicles go that the car companies build and are often seen at car shows and races. Any ideas, or do you know someone who has bought one?

i have an ex btcc 1999 primera and i bought it because it has full cage carbon dash and all the graphics but was left on factory susspension mounts and all the engine mounts are still there so i can run all my modified road stuff just started the conversion http://s1091.photobucket.com/albums/i391/berniesierra/
