Ferrari 360 Modena Replica based on Peugeot 406 Coupe!

The 406 coupe is the right car to use for lots of reasons. The windscreen is the right size, the wheel base after our alterations is only 1 and a half inches longer than the genuine car .(longer results in a better look, as you don't have to distort the panels in any way). The dashboard of the car is very close to the genuine car and with our interior kit the door panels can easily be made to look like the 360 door panel.

The car can be lowered to the correct ride height without upsetting the steering geometry . This is achieved by bolting the track rod end in the from the top of the hub, instead of the normal way from the bottom of the hub. The car is also a big car like the 360 & has all the nice extras people like to have in a high class car as standard. It is available with both 2L and 3L V6 engines and although the cars cost over £25,000 new, you can now get them from as little as £2,500.

The car has the engine in the front of the car. Now at first you would think this not right and maybe silly as the engine in a 360 is in the rear, but it has its advantages. You have 4 seats. It can also be converted to a 2 seater with our simple 2 seater conversion pack. The chassis is strong enough to take an engine in the back, we are doing this but also leaving the engine in the front so two 3L engines with 4 wheel drive will also be available soon. This will be a limited run and cars will be £40,000, so if you want a perfect replica it is possible. It has a large boot and is designed by pininfarina, the same company that designed the 360. The whole car was designed by them and shares no panels , either inside or out with the 4 door 406 saloon . They also use the well known Brembo performance brakes on the 3L V6.
