Well its a new recreation to me, spotted on A303 yesterday about 18:30 on the back of a trailer around Andover, never come across this one be for, not sure if it had been to Thruxton as not far behind was a early M3 on a tralier.

Very similar probably. Rothmans could never make their mind up what car they wanted to sponsor. They went from Ford Escorts to Opel Asconas to quattros to Porsche then to Rover Metro. They were always good cars though.
