Default 22B Replica Anyone?...

Sure everyone has seen the rapidly increasing cost of the 22B recently, well I just saw an advert for this replica:









The bodykit is l'aunsport and, from what I have seen in the past, their replica WRCar parts are by far the best, so I am sure this will be a decent reproduction of a 22B. Everything else appears to be standard and it's yours for:

£28,495

It's a Newera Import car and I believe they have a pretty good reputation for importing decent cars, but £29K for a standard Type R with a bodykit?

Ha: glad I'm not alone with my thinking there. I know two classics are appreciating in value, but this seemed quite a steep jump!

It may have been taken down and readvertised. Pretty sure it was 'only' £25k at one point as well?!

Interesting sales strategy. Car doesn't sell, whack it up 25%

Possibly. Maybe they're trying to sell in on behalf of someone over there?!
