I should clarify, given how these topics have a habit of ‘expanding’, I’m not trying to imply that one is better than the other in any absolute fashion. They are different things.

A person can prefer one or the other and both are right, given it's a personal choice.

If people on here aren't moved by old Italian (rally) cars, I'm on the wrong forum.

Tomorrows LBS offering is Johnny driving the LB in question. Not sure what time it’ll go online though. Anyone that keen can always set an alert on YT

How do you delete a duplicated post.....?

**john** · 06-07-2021, 12:16

Amen to that ( both) Chris's.
It illustrates quite well, that the search for the ultimate replica ( see other threads...) can be right for some but not for others.
Personal choice.
But this guy could have bought an actual original car. And chose not to.

I suppose he can live with the Miura's inflammatory tendencies because he's installed a special system to combat them. An inbuilt handling flaw (or advantage - depends if your name is Munari or Waldegaard or not) is probably more difficult to overcome. I've not enough experience of original cars so I don't know if the supposed twitchiness can be dialled out.
Funnily enough, it used to be that I'd have worked a modicum of overtime to own a genuine car. But these last 10 or 15 years, not so much...sure they're great, but they're also old tech and you can do better, which is why I went for an LB. Also why I really like restomods. So I "get" why he didn't want the Real McCoy, but I also get why for some only the genuine article is acceptable. Good job we're inclusive on here innit!
