Very special built by an aircraft engineer - not a kit car- poxy essex V6 ( with turbos?)in the back, and production price was around £40,000 go lookee!

:(Okay it is very 70's, but iirc the panels are aluminium ( not fiberglass), the fit/ shut lines put mass produced cars to shame(even today), a sort of (ugly) Scottish Bristol, handling was iirc superb but cost of production was its downfall - built as a Plane with the same techniques. :thumbs:

Good engine though :nod:

Not that I'm biased you understand...

If IIRC the twin turbo V6 was tested to 160+MPH ( they ran out of road!)of the claimed 188mph, and I think it was at Leuchars Airstrip that was in 1978ish.
