Hi Jean-Louis,

Thank you for the answers on my questions.

First for now I am looking forward to receive the first models (Ref.001) of Minerva43, then I will see what the future will bring on.

Have a nice day!!

Hello Remco,

I understand that you are concerned about the planning of Minerva43.

Unfortunately, I can't tell you what are the plans for an eventual Elegance version of the Breadvan as nothing is decided today.
All I can say is that it was never decided to necessarily make an Elegance version of each factory build model.

Every needed information's about future plans will be given on the Minerva43 website http://www.minerva43.com once something is precisely defined.

Kind regards,

Jean-Louis.

Hi Jean-Louis,

Thank you for the explanation.

Can you tell me or the Elegance version is also limited for 2 builds each year? (So, in total there will be 2x normal and 2x elegance versions each year?)
I think the next is Ferrari Breadvan (Ref.002). Will this car also available in Elegance version?

I believe the list with future plannings are under construction and so it can still change? I hope pure that Minerva43 will also take an Aston Martin in the list. Most of them are Ferrari's....that is a little bit too much for my feeling.

I can tell you that I am a lucky subscribed member for the both versions. That is why I am very curious to the plannings and the idea's behind Minerva43.

Best regards, Remco

I also understood it that way that the number of two models is meant to be the total production not only the factory built versions.

Has Minerva also have an idea how many kits will be released each year?
Enzo1 Posted - 02/16/2011 : 05:34:48
Performance,

My previous message concerns only the availability of the kit. ;)

Minerva43 never said that all the kits will be available in the factory build range...
However, if the 250 TR could come as a factory build, it won't be at the same period anyway because it is humanly impossible.

Minerva43 will indeed make maximum 2 factory build models a year.

Regards,

Jean-Louis.

On the website of Minerva I read the following text:

"Once the client is subscribed, he engages himself to order each reserved model of the factory build range. Once a year, maximum two factory builds are foreseen."

If this is ref #3 and planned for summer 2011, then there will be 3 factory build models within 1 year? Or I am wrong?

Great to see such a classic modelled from one of the very best!

Do we see more "surprise" releases which have not been on the future project list so far?
