The fact that people spend thousands on repro kits to make their carslook like a T3 is a giveaway. It creates a desire.

The T1 & T2 were a failure in sales owing to there low key styling and the premium dealer strategy. A dumb concept which had the other 250 dealers saying to there long established customers "you don't want one of them an XR8 is just as good for less $$$." I know, I was told this.

Yes Im a trainspotter as you call it, but my stock little T2 is yet to be outrun by a stock BA GT.
You honestly believe all of that don't you....
