    Anyone Recognise This Car?

    A friend is bringing a copy of the magazine back from Malaga for me...

    This comes up on Google. Looks to be the same car with the aerial, the yellow fogs, the round arches & the angled outer driving lamps. Sticker positions look the same as well.
    The sill line on this shot doesn't look to be a replica in the way we know it?
    I guess you'll know more when you see the mag.

    As far as I know, no works car ever ran with Pirelli colours and round arches.

    Lancia kept an old 1975 24v car (old green bottom white top Alitalia colours originally) for demos etc.
    It was painted in Pirelli colours, but no longer eligible.
    Andy Dawson once drove it for a magazine article at Donington.

    That's interesting. Maybe they are referring to a "replica" livery on an original car?

    Right! It's an original 1974 Stratos... definetely not a replica...only the livery is the 1978 Pirelli car's reproduction!!
    This car raced in Vosges Festival rally last summer!

    I find that it's a bit severe and inappropriate to call this car a replica!

    Pretty much what I thought it could mean. It is a car which has been converted from an original Stradale road car to be a Gp4 car out of period which could be interpreted as a GP4 replica. It's a bit harsh and doesn't run true to our interpretation of a replica but it makes sense.

    Who's going to email Tryphon & tell him his car is now classed as a "replica"?
