Welsh company MST Cars announced it's developing a replica of the MG Metro 6R4 that competed in the Group B category of the World Rally Championship in the 1980s. New from the ground up, the hot hatch features a carbon fiber body and a mid-mounted V6 engine.

Photos of a bare shell posted on the company's Facebook page suggest that the modern-day 6R4 will look just like the original model. It features a muscular-looking body kit characterized by a front spoiler, huge wheel arch flares, vents that channel cooling air into the engine bay, and a rear wing. Instead of starting with a regular-production Metro shell, which by this point has become relatively difficult to find, MST Cars teamed up with New Zealand-based Innovate Composites to build the body and the parts that make up the body kit with carbon fiber.
