Anyone want to give me £50k so I can buy and insure that? lol

Hmmm if each of the 3000 members on here gave me £20 each then i would have enough to buy it as a site track car :p lol :boxing:

I like it too and agree with nicer/more modern looking wheels. I do prefer one with a spoiler too.

I think there'd be a bit of a fight over who took it home at the end of the day!

Incidentally, does any know the kerb weight for one of these. Seemed to get a bit of a slating by a lot of mini-Clarkson's on PH for being an underpowered MG but given the carbon fibre body I wondered what teh power to weight ratio is like

Yeah, and it has round shaped fog lights which are placed within road legal distance and clearance, which makes it look exactly like Dacia Solenza.

I'm sorry but apparently it has got everything which makes it a car, a very nice badge, a very tunable engine, great brakes, and it looks savage, if that was designer's point.

As for the weels, my zed has got hairpins, so have many supercars including porsche panamera, ferrari 599 gtb, to name a few.

My point here is that the bloke who designed it had really done a fine job with what he got and he made it cool and desireable, if not original, for many years ahead... But thats just me.

Imo TVR did the same idea better with the speed 12 just a shame they only made one road car :/
