Road registered, would get more attention than a Veyron.

That's been up for sale for years. Sorry to get the anorak out, but it's only a replica - it's a Fabcar chassis with a 911 turbo engine. Aye, fast and all, but massively compromised as a road car and it's not got the kudos of actually being a 962. Dauer (and some others) converted ex race chassis to road cars in the 90s, but this isn't one. As a road car, it'd be horrible anyway :)

Sorry - will descend back into my den of racing Porsche geek again...

Remember now that it has surfaced before, would not be surprised if it was also by me. :D

Afraid in that case it is back to a pair of socks for you.

One sock should suffice, for when he dreams of 962s...

I always land on that car when planning my lotto win garage, replica or not I reckon it's way cooler than a Veyron. Would need it painted in proper colours though,

Lovely but you have reminded me of my major car purchasing regret with Malton's website. Nearly bought a 964 RS in 2000 when they were around £20-£25K. Ended up going for the S1 Elise 111S. Now the RS's are worth £70k+ :(
