I bought ELA12131 in August and haven't driven it yet, probably not till spring now. It's engine is being rebuilt. And I'll have more money in it when the engine is done. Well, at least mine is a euro car. The car on ebay seems to be nicer (at least the interior). I am very happy that I've got the opportunity to own one!

Indeed a nice looking Jalpa, but I have never liked the rear wing. It looks too big for the car- IMO.

That's what I thought when I saw the pictures. Overpowering. Mine has an aftermarket and it's much more proportional. Haven't decided if I'm going to keep it or not.

Ross, yours looks like the wing the 74 and later Pantera have on them. they can be purchased in fiberglass or carbon fiber. i prefer the Jalpa with a wing, and the Countach without. your car looks very nice overall. best wishes on the first spring drive when its done.

Michael
