Hi Graham

It is manufactured to a very high standard by a a local South African company Birkin Cars.

They also export and have agents in most parts all of the world. Mine is an
older live axle carr, newer versions have IRS rear suspension and can be built with extreme motors (260hp+)

Sheryl Christie handles their marketing.

Clearly that engine is not in scale to the car. You must send it to me and I'll find something else to put it in. :wink:

Every year factory five hosts an event in Huntington beach. Last weekend was this event. We brought the coupe and the roadster... also the quarter scales! It was a blast. Our roadster won Best roadster for a second year in a row out of about 110 roadsters. We also won Second best of the show. It was a great weekend. These cars are just amazing!!!

Yes. Blue and white of course. However we are going to do a twist on the blue. It's going to be the blue they use on newer Prius cars. I know, I know... But look sometime. It would be a cool color to use.
