real porsche or replica? (It has an L-reg plate = 1972 ..so probably a kit based on an old VW)

Could hypotize even an Apal Speedster,a VW Beetle-powered replica(in fiberglass)made in Belgium(some of them were imported also in Italy,thru end of Eighties'-early Nineties')

The british plate is from the 70's, so it can't be a real Speedster.

Hi guys - I'm the director of the film - it was indeed a replica - I'm afraid I don't know much about cars but from talking to the guy the owned it, it appeared to be built from a kit using a vw beetle as a base of some sort.

It's a Chesil Speedster replica not an APAL, now the manufacturer's name is Tygan http://www.tygan.co.uk/
