Yep, Angliss and quote from Spain´s book.
Like i wrote..
1087,88 and 89 were completed by Wingfield etc..recently..but on Tennant chassis.

Serial numbers were changed and sometimes also displacement.
Engines sometimes.
But they had to stick to what was homologated.
So the difference to a race car is not as much that some people tend to believe.
They were of course set up differently and used sometimes different detailing wich should not effect performance in an "un legal" way !!!
Should, being the key word !!!

Some MkV´s have been sold for high prices too..
MkV and I´s do share several things other than basic dimensions.
Same Moulds were used for both.
Altough MkV uses different lights and clips etc..
And a MkV is not a MkI, wich it was moulded after....
