| Re: New AC Cobra I was just wondering about this statement from the ACCARSUS (Does anyone else read it as Toys'R'US?) website: " The carbon-fibre bodied AC MkV is based on the design of the Le Mans winning AC Cobra...." Which one was that then? The 289 Cobra that actually looked like a Cobra came 7th at Le Mans in 1963, and the Cobra that won in `64 was a Daytona, so just how is the MkV based on either of them? AC is dead. RIP. (But the buggers won`t let them...)

| Re: New AC Cobra ****s! What was I thinking. The Daytona didn`t 'win' Le Mans in `64, it was 1st GT, 4th overall..... behind 3 Ferraris, Oh well, that was 3 less ahead of it than in `63. So. Which Cobra won Le Mans then??????

| Re: New AC Cobra Lets face it, there will never be genuine AC Cobras made again; if anyones that desperate for an AC badge, there are plenty on Ebay for less than a fiver!!! I guess the closest 'modern' equivalent to the original are the Brian Angliss cars, which you can still find (the Brooklands built alloy body jobs) for around £35,000 with small block ford. I'd love one, but then again, I dare use my RAM!!! :thumb: Steve

| Re: New AC Cobra Good points Steve, and no, I haven`t had a reply to my email yet!!!! I must admit that if money were no object, I`d have a Kirkham 289FiA from Hawk. OMIGOD! How sweet are they?!
