It looks familiar somehow, I can't quite put my finger on it ;)
 
Rear end? How about the entire design? 908 rip-off, bleh. I can't actually see any originality in the design, with the only major difference to the 908/90X test bed being the nose struts being thinner and longer. Thats not much of a difference.

I hope Lola come up with a nice design, their B08 looked great. Had some good engine packages too, with the Aston Martin V12 and the Mazdas..
 
The base design definitely looks like a Peugeot 908... Add that add this, makes the car somehow different but it doesn't erase the 908 looking.
 
There's a saying in my country that goes "If it isn't broken, don't fix it."
 
Can Peugeot lawsuit Riley because of alleged copy of the 908's design?
 
No. That's like McLaren suing everyone else in F1 who made an F-duct.

Hey, with no buyer in sight, you may never see the car on track.
Peugeot isn't to worried I would think.
 
Wow, Peugeot's new Le Mans car better do great!

Wait...that's not a Peugeot? Then is it a Citroen version? No? Well I'll be damned...
 
Whats with the 908 design? Copy cat?
 
Well, it's better to design off of something already proven to be a very good car, than to make your own that most likely won't be so good.
