This was my favourite Top Trumps card. The Pininfarina Mudulo.

Had no idea it was powered by Ferrari until I saw this vid! Whodathunkit :lol: ..

Seems a shame though to chop up a Ferrari 512S to make a car only suitable for UFOs Commander Straker :D

I remember reading this article and tried to find out if the project was completed or not.
Found some forum posts indicating that it was shelved for some reason and also that someone who had something to do with it had passed away.
Be interested to find out what the current status is....
