They're not VW based, but they are kits(. The two in the driveway are anyway. I can't see enough of the one in the garage to tell for certain. Nice looking cars though. Some of the kits, when well built, make very nice cars :)

Yes those you can see are kits, Auburn Speedster Replicas, mine (blue) built by Classic Cars of London (Canada) and the yellow one built by Auburn Speedster Motorcars, Florida. The white one is a rare Diamante. RR:s are genuine, unfortunately no more pics.

Still a working garage and that's cool! Maybe not as clean as mine or messy as Johns :thumbup: But in fairness Moo does fiberglass stuff and that's hard to keep clean period!!!

The owner of RR:s asked us, me and the guy who owns Diamante, to take a look of his just arrived Auburn and he did shoot these 2 snapshots. Unfortunately I did not have my camera with me. But this is a better pic of my baby:
