Nice to see an active club in my area.
I'm currently building an A8 based DNA4thirty.
The mr2 chassis sits on the A8 subframes with all braking supplied by the A8.
This is an extensive build which should end up with a fast safe 430 replica.
Budget is around the £25000 mark, I'm doing it cause I love cars and tinkering, I also love the modern Ferrari's look.
Hope to complete end of summer

Hi Darren and welcome,
Sounds like and interesting Project. As Plug said contact Tenpin as he is very keen to hook up with other DNA owners.
See you down the road aways. Are you attending Detling?

Welcome Darren, I don't feel quite so outnumbered on this forum now! Looking forward to seeing your 430 completed and on the road.

Neil,
When I looked around at all the cars that went to Bentley... Let me assure you, it was not hard to feel outnumbered. Not unwelcome, mind, just outnumbered. The sight of all those cars proudly displaying their exhausts, wheels and suspenders (sorry autocomplete filled in wrong word) suspension....

some souls say unique.
In your profile it should say "individual, doesn't follow the herd. I have an opinion and I'm not afraid to use it."
or
"left field. Lost the plot and made a wacky decision. Hay ho life goes on"
that's how fickle it all is....... IMHO
