Ahhh, the person who painted that car is about to re-spray mine. There is also a sister car to that reyland, well, there will be. It is currently being painted (edit: as per pagani's post)

Let me see if I can get some pics!


Sorry about the size:



a sneek peek of it nearly finished.....


I'll get some proper pics when it is finished - let me know if you want more...I can get the start to finish pics off Simon.

Hahah, I wish.

That is THE Relyand Sierra; sister car to the Escort. The only link I have to the Reyland cars is the fact I am using the same person to paint may car wither BMW Le Mans Blue or Ferrari TDF Blue.

They can switc between rwd and awd drive the have os giken gearbox this one few gearboxes that can do it.
Rwd mode is show off or putting heat in the tires awd is trackrace and hard launching and all the other things.

/\/\ thats a pretty neat system

Thanks for the pics Jon S, wow those colours really beautiful, but they also lookalike alot, just with a blink of the eye thought the Ferrari looks just a bit better

But its your decision and your car

YOu know, as impressive as all that sounds, and as impressive as the video looks - wouldn't people be more surprised if a hugely modded, gutted interior, lightened, strengthed "race car" with plates did not go as quickly as that?

It's not exactly a comfortable daily driver anymore is it?
