But the owner thinks it's a Nova and it is interesting.... :

It has a canopy, so a Panache with wheel arch extensions maybe? I'm not into Lambo 'replicas' but this one has that 'almost there' quality that makes it interesting to my mind. The canopy and windscreen shape (discussed in the beautiful kit cars thread) give it that extra something. Even the wing on the back looks good and I'm not a fan of wings.

P.S. Why can car sellers never spell?

Is that windscreen a flat sheet, or is there curvature? Also, I'd have to say that the glare off that windscreen would be worse than off of a Nova/Eureka/Stirling.

Flat screen, this thing has been for sale for years, I tried to buy it a couple of times when it was on ebay.

Yes, that's definitely a Panache.

It certainly has something going for it in the looks department, but as I've mentioned before, to my mind its a shame that Paul Lawrenson couldn't decide whether he wanted to replicate a Dome P2 (front) or Countach (back), with a canopy roof for access (which neither of the above had :facepalm: )
