I have known this car since late 1997 when Ray Ferguson acquired it for the Pirelli Maranello Challenge here in the UK, we both raced 308 GT4's at the time. I bought it in 2002 and did a few races in 2003, the car has been garaged since then.

It's not street legal but that is something I might do in the future, it could save some late nights!

There's also a model from the 1995 Challenge, when Martin Henderson ran the car - it shows the paint job had changed slightly.
I haven't found a model from 1994 Alan Li's time with the car.
