Sadly not, well out of my meagre budgets; more for the fun and experience.
They do indeed use the Scooby flat four turbocharged and tuned to 275 BHP.

Be interested to hear what you think of them, Mike. I thought they were remarkably cheap for the potential they offered. Wonder how easy it would be to get one SVA'd.......

Hopefully be able to fit it up with some on board stuff and post a vid (unless (until) I crash it).

Only in relation to the engine. It's a proper closed cockpit aero car.

It's a nice looking car, never heard of them before today.
Whats the cost of a second hand one (if there are any) ?

Only really launched in the UK mid last year but have been running in Europe for 5 years so that would be a good place to look for used examples although I can't find any for sale myself.

I was looking at Spire GTR's a few months ago and came across these. I love the sound of impreza engines!

I bet the price on a new clam if you stuff it, would make VX prices look cheap.

They sure do. Very raw. Clam, tubing, engine, finished.
Keep in mind, they built race cars, not road cars.
