[dami]

Hi All,with this year being the 50th aniversary im trying to find out if anybody out there drives a touring car replica.it would be great to meet up at a race day with replicas from past years as a fans tribute to 50 years of top notch motorsport.
here is a link to my photobucket with pictures of my daily run around its a signed replica of Yvan Mullers 1999 vectra http://s270.photobucket.com/albums/jj97/btccvec/

Think thats just a road car with decals, the official one was alot lower and was black.

I have an astra coupe in the 2004 livery but it doesnt get driven much and the stickers look a bit rubbish so im going to have it restickered!!

[Eurotech]

By the way WSRfan - was your car at Donington Park in 2004 for the BTCC at Schwantz Curve with the XPower Tent ???

I wonder how many ST or touring car lookalikes are there in the UK. I did collect pictures from ST/TC fans across the world. Therre's been a few interesting ones like the DTM E30s, a DTM Alfa 155, Opel Calibra and Audi V8.

Was a blue Nissan Primera P12 without a spoiler ever raced in the BTCC. If so, I've got a BTCC replica car..........

[dami]

Hi All, its good to see im not the only one really BTCC mad
Im sure there must be more out there !
ive heard of astra replicas(cleland)and somewhere in the uk is a volvo 850(rydell) kicking about surely they hav'nt gone to the big scrapyard in the sky

[Marc W]

There was a very good Peugeot 406 one around a few years back, that was on sale at a Peugeot dealers, I thought about buying it myself. I'd imagine that must still be around somewhere.

Check out my old thread I started a while back about ST and DTM lookalikes/

Overtook a yellow cavalier with BTCC decals on the M1 yesterday near Loughborough. Looked and sounded nice too!

I suppose the latest BTCC replica is the SEAT Leon you can buy with BTCC livery and a stupid bodykit.

[Eurotech]

Does anyone know where to get an Integra because i want to have one in Eurotech colours. (Hence my Name)

Mostly because a Porsche or Ascari is to Expensive.

[bf1_IRL]

How about here http://www.litchfieldimports.co.uk/integra.asp :)

[VXR-4-Eva]

I see what the problem is because the Integra was always a bit of a strange car to have in the BTCC seing as it was not on sale here

Maybe there should be a rule that only cars that have been on sale in the UK in the last few years can compete ???

So how would manufacturers be able to race new models?

[WSRfan82]

i did have the car on show for MG at dony as it was a member of the Xpower owners club so it mite of been

I have the only MG ZS replica built by MG Sport and Racing. There is another built by WSR which started life with the reg P1WSR and as far as I know is now owned by a dentist in Southampton.
Photo here http://gallery.brit-cars.com/showphoto.php/photo/7312/cat/528

There are a few more pictures of other enthusiasts cars too.


BTW It has the 2.5 V6 under the bonnet and a few tweaks were added before we picked it up so it is not just show.

[mattie007]

Very nice, think Ive seen that a few times.
Weren't they going to make a limited run of those but it never happened?

[WSRfan82]

looks like the one i used to own :) but i had the green strips put on myself with the hot wheels sponser on the side and bonnet

Did you get round to painting your Integra?

[Eurotech]

had it painted a few weeks ago - looks briliant!

still not sure wether or not to put Old Man or Jordan on the Back window!

[VXR-4-Eva]

Does anyone think that it would be possible to buy an ex BTCC car and do it up for road use?

I'd love to do it and sounds like a great Idea!

an Ideal car would probably be an Encke Sport Astra. Does anyone know if that Cansiz79 guy bought it or not?

[Eurotech]

Sorry mate, dunno.
