I'd prefer the Range Rover with a race tuned AJP lump or even full house 500 TVR tweaked V8 - but that's been done.

Are the Simmonites still building Simbugginis? Or, failing that, there's always a Bowler Wildcat...

Yes, they are still building them, and succesfully racing them. Rachael and Stephanie are true petrol heads. The latest Bowlers are awesome machines and Land Rover are now officially sponsoring one IIRC.

Top Gear featured the latest Bowlers last night.

I hate to mention Mercedes on this forum, but someone did something similar with a G-Wagon and an SLK body. Complete with a matching trailer it did look pretty good.

'They' must have been women presumably, as men don't drive SLKs as a rule!

Yes they were the round the worlders. American, I think, which would explain the lack of taste.
