Beginning in the early eighties, Covin built a Porsche 911 Turbo replica (both in this style and as a flatnose). Normally built around VW components and a fiberglass body, Luke’s example is running a 2 litre twin cam Vauxhall engine, currently for sale on eBay UK (#180254304436, located in Somerset). While it’s true that you can now buy a genuine Porsche 911 for not much more than a Covin replica, the truth is that the Covin is a far rarer vehicle, as well as costing less to maintain and insure… If you’re interested in more info, check out Covin Technical.

    So it’s rarer than a 911? Do you think there might be a reason for that? A car that looks like a 911, but has an asthmatic 4 cyl engine? Ooooh, yummy!

    Its not that bad, I didnt get to see the asking price, with so many kit cars having VW engines is this 2000cc that bad?
