They are Chris! if it's still for sale in September why not pop down to Rally Legends and pick it up on the way home?

It's always the same isn't it?
You could put together quite a big list of car models, where the earliest have the best aesthetics, while the later versions have the stronger running gear, and hopefully, better build quality?
Mmmm. Beta HPE, first one, a 1978 car with mustard interior and chrome door mirrors vs two later HPE VX's.
The first car had by far the best bodywork but the VX was the quicker car by a long way. Money no object I'd have another one tomorrow so long as I had somewhere dry for a garage! Or maybe two and get Geoff to graft in some Integrale running gear. That would make an interesting Q car!

Made a few generous donations to the distressed Stratos restoration fund, but otherwise not too far gone, sitting in the barn.
Could be a Prototipo donor....

It would make a donor, I reckon?
Are these of any help Chris?
A couple of photos of the local replicas, they did get their body kits from Guy Mourenhout. They've also built a Dino 206sp replica that wasn't being raced this year, it's very detailed right down to part numbers in castings.
