The great thing about car replicas is that you get to drive a scale model of the car you played with as a kid, and they actually have a number of advantages over the original. Old original cars, no matter how well maintained, can be a safety hazard due to their age and worn parts, and they’re also expensive. Replicas, however, are cheaper than old original cars, are built with new parts, and must pass safety tests before they can be sold, so they are very safe and can help prevent unexpected accidents on the road.
