However good effort... and maybe he is a "real" enthusiast!! just with no money! IF I came into big win - Think I would take a film crew there and present him with a real one! that would make some great watching now wouldn't it

On the proviso he cuts the Other one in small bits.......

Was one a bit like that at castle Combe on sat - bike engined and running on slicks - it was quick if ugly - external frame with what looked like carbon panels for bonnet and along the sides - commendable bit of spannering but to my eye pig ugly - havnt seen any snaps posted up so far so others seem to have taken the same view

Reminds me of the "before" Professors Potts Chitty Chitty BangBang. You know when the kids are playing with it in the field in front of the garage. That car needs to be taken into the shed and rehabilitated into something of substance. Sadly I think that is about as far along as it'll get and tarnish the image of what it's copying.

The one at Combe is on this

I think it's different to those shown- certainly a lot more ugly and that's saying something - rather illustrated by fact I had a queue and took out 14 punters and the other car whilst termed "atom like" ran empty !!

[davo]

I think it was a queue based on likelihood of survival!!!

did you see what engine was in it, steam.... solar...... hamsters????

beauty is in the eye of the beholder, granted, but specsavers can help.
