Chris Harris and the Tuthil 911

Maybe the door is on 1st safety catch with the (charging?) cable there?

Been following that build and it’s stunning. As graham says, pretty sure the door isn’t fully shut as the build is strong on detail

Indeed, nobody is careless about panel gaps these days unless it is a quick rebuild or maybe a race car etc, but at £400K the body will be 'perfect' I'm sure along with all the other items.

The engine must be fabulous, gearbox too and so on.
Lovely car without being a Singer 'copy'.
Just my take on the whole thing.

Interesting number plate……

I thought they were 850k

From what I have seen, the build quality is pretty good and the finish excellent. Price wise, you guys are still a bit short!

Fabulous thing but I would question why? But Andrew has some great cars and can so I guess his question would be why not?

I thought DVLA didn't approve substantially altered vehicles? Remember KS started such a thread a few months ago?

[Nine One One]

With such modifications to the shell does this now go on a ‘Q’ plate or does bolting/gluing carbon fibre bits on it not change the structure? Or is it, in DVLA’s eyes, essentially the same car?

I asked this months ago, and someone said it was on US plates, so maybe now declared as imported, and as such manages to skip/get around IVA or anything else?

- he obviously lusted after your old car Mike ...

Incidentally this car shows up on DVLA still with a 2.2 litre engine ...

I don't think it is substantially altered is it?

I was just being a dick really. I’m sure it’s lovely in real life, how could it not be?

Same reason we all built/d stuff like that to a less fancy degree - anyone can write a cheque for a car, getting something unique created for you is more special. And all the great philosophers and theists know life’s about the journey not the destination and the journey to that car will have been quite a bit more more exciting than a salesman at a dealer in a finance-bro gilet pulling a sheet off a new supercar.
