We secretly like replica’s because of the craftsmanship gone into undertaking such work, they will never be perfect recreations, but think about it a brand new Ferrari 458 look-a-like for around 50k.

A real, brand new Ferrari will set you back circa £215k its got a V8 engine and sounds like screaming angels, this ‘replica’ uses a V6 petrol with some genuine Ferrari parts, says the owner. Which are probably fake.

But replicas are what they are, fake’s. Like a fake pair of Nike running shoes or politician’s saying they are going to end tax & spend. Its all fake and self delusional.

No matter how much money you save you can never recreate the original and it will always leave a bad taste in your mouth, like Morrison’s cornflakes never taste as good as Kellogg’s cornflakes. You can tell the difference straight away.

And that’s the problem with this fake Ferrari 458, it leaves a bad taste, its in bad taste and its owner is desperate and delusional. All we want to know is how did it get through the MOT test and how did it get a license plate?
