    It should automatically download and install.
    If it isn't in game check your Steam Inventory / rFactor 2 tab / select vehicle icon / View Workshop Item / If green box says Subscribe, then click it to subscribe.
    If you are already subscribed it will have Subscribed.
    Do the same for any S397 paid DLC.

    You have an old mod(like a skin pak) that used an older version of that car. Either find an updated skinpak or delete the mod using the packages screen

    I'm a bit confused now because as far as my rF2 install shows the Oreca is only v1.70, v1.71.
    Unless it has something to do with me still using the default UI. :confused:

    Yeah mate, he's got a skin pack or an add on for the Oreca and it's saying can't find base because the Oreca has been updated to 1.70 / 1.71 and the pack he's got is looking for the old version. ;)

    V2.05 is the mod version that was chosen by the painter. Modders generally try to pick a version number that is higher than the original cars. at some point the S397 cars were updated which includes a new version number. so the painted cars, v2.05 are looking for an older version of the S397 cars. That is what is causing the error. solution remains the same. delete the skin pak, or find an update to the skin pak that is designed to work with the latest version of the S397 cars.

    This problem will reoccur whenever S397 releases an update that changes the version numbers.
