I didnt mean it in that way. Im a big sportscar racing fan and used to hearing a DBR9 with a screaming Aston V12 up the front and now this replica (what else could you call it) rumbles along with a big V8. Its a bit weird seeing something and hearing something different then what Im used to. Not fussed what engine it runs, its just great to see the car out racing.

As I said before, love the car, a beautiful machine. The choice of a DBR9 lookalike is a bit left field but a great one at that.
