Great price. Thought they were going to be much more expensive than that. Lets see if they can actually build and deliver them, now.

Absolutely crap pictures on their site as well. Reckon they probably only finished bolting it together on Wednesday. Interesting to see that they're planning to kill their customers by offering a rear anti-roll bar setup in their trackday options. :rolleyes:

And yes it's a bit brick like - the Volvo of the atom/bac mono class. Even the ktm x-bow looks more interesting

Interior is a bit bland, but for price its what you'd expect. Otherwise, absolutely love it!

 

Hopefully they can stay at this price when they start making them...

Hmmm. Me thinks I'd take one of these and the Duratec engine, or whatever they're currently called, and steer well clear of a K series.

I like the outrageous looks of the 340R, and the way they will appreciate in the future. Plus it has a windscreen to keep the bugs out of my teeth. K Series, can be made reliable, even though it sounds like a bag of nails on tickover.

Looking at the chassis design I know where I'd rather be if it all goes wrong, there's a reason that they stopped designing cars with backbone chassis. Having repairable chassis is not much point if you can't use it!

I first thought that too, however the roll cage looks like it makes up for the lack of side protection (providing only the roll bar design has been changed since this)
