Is that Zircotec in Abingdon? 

 

If so they're a customer of mine... Didn't know they done road cars as well.

More pics please, it's looking rather lovely.  Are you putting a boot box back in?  You know, for carrying ice-cream back from Tescos...  also, did you keep hold of the VHPD for the day when an 'original' Exige is worth more than a house?

That looks amazing Dan does make very shiny things. 

 

I missed what the spec on yours was but I just bought an S1 with a Clockwise (am I right in thinking that's who builds Dan's engines?) K20 with a stroker kit and somewhere just north of 300BHP. Absolutely mad love it. It's got an under sub exhaust so is probably capable of a bit more. I think Dan mapped it might see if he has a record of a dyno plot for it. You are in for a treat anyway nothing quite like these things. They even have that illusive thing for a Honda...a bit of torque!
