Now how's this for a "Replica" story?

Court finds the driver at fault during a test drive! Big bucks, big names!
Note the car is considered a "Reproduction/Replica and NOT a kit! You might want to print the court info out and save it.....you never know..... but I do know a precedence is hard to beat or over rule!

Mark Hales is a well know and very experienced racing driver of high repute. He has been driving Nick Mason's cars for years including his 250 GTO at meetings like the Goodwood Revival. Mark has been treated appallingly by Piper IMO.

In my, albeit limited experience, Mark is a thoroughly decent chap with vast experience of driving difficult and "priceless" classics.

too bad he didn't blow an engine in a Lola T70, chevys are lot cheaper than those awesome sounding 12's from Zuffenhausen..
