It looks great but it still shows signs of being a modified Stradale - generally given away by the 'stock' dash. Don't know what colour the car would have been from the factory but has had extensive paint (obviously ;)) as there are a number of stickers missing from the top of the front panel under the bonnet. Also, the main ali ID plate has been rivetted on in an unusual way.

Wheels looks exceedingly 'snug' under those arches don't they! :o I wouldn't want to take it along some of the roads we used on 3MA08 ;D

Still, a very nice looking car that is being sold as a replica at a price that is actually virtually the same as that of a certain Belgian, who has two red Stradales for sale from about 45 to 50k Euros.

I'd say it had two carbs Kev, as the air filter box is the same as that used on the 124 Spider Abarth and 125 series engines, which has twins ;)
