Was XOO344F a Mann race car?

[Chris!]

[mk1super]

I ment was there such a car or is it a made up job by model makers minichamps

[Anglia68]

XOO 344F was definately an Alan Mann racer as was XOO 346F.

This is the only pic I could find and it's only in B+W but it's still freakin cool.

Here's the only pic I could find of the engine bay of XOO 349F fitted with the later Twin Cam rather than the earlier FVA.

Thanks for the info guys, one other question, how many of the original Mann racers are still alive? Anyone know?

[Anglia68]

XOO 349F is still doing the show circuit but don't know about the others.I think I read that some went to South Africa or Australia,not really sure.

The Lotus Cortina is an exellent model. I won't buy the Twincam though. It aint got the AVO type front wings + it has the wrong steering wheel. Mayby I'm too picky, but for that sort of money they should be right..
