Today's values of Ferrari's inaugural mid-engined masterpiece have put the Dino beyond the reach of most enthusiasts' pockets, making quality replicas ever more appealing. Sitting on Cromodora alloy wheels, the Deon Scoperto GTS offered is visually accurate enough to fool many an admirer, and rare in its own right as only c.28 Targa versions were produced by Deon cars of Illminster. Its tubular spaceframe chassis is clothed in a fibreglass body. Suspension is Fiat 124 up front and Lancia Beta at the rear, while power is supplied by a Weber-fed 2.0-litre Lancia twin-cam engine driving through a five-speed manual gearbox. 'VNP 678L' comes complete with an MOT into October, plus copies of all major service work since 2009, and last October benefited from a head skimming, carburettor reset, and new cam belt and water pump. The three owners to date have amassed a mere 26,400 miles between them making this 'lookalike' an appealing proposition.
