Our head office is in Poole and I walk past westover Sports Cars front window 2-3 times a week. There's a red one of those in road trim in the showroom at the moment. I keep finding myself stopping and staring. And then thinking 'no! I shouldn't!!...'. I probably won't but it looks like a great car - a real racer for the road. Great pics

Edited to finally sort out my own idiotic formatting!

Thanks, Johnny. I had the chance to go out in Gavin Kirby's Lotus Cup Europe 2-11 at Ty Croes a few weeks ago and ran out of time. Absolutely gutted - they are seriously quick! Sequential box and very serious brakes. Try an S1 Exige - look equally dramatic, weight about the same but you get a roof!

Yep. Proof - if proof were needed - that neither power, nor loads of grip are required for great racing.

Thanks Peter. I'm actually over that way next weekend as (no smugness intended) we're flying from Manchester to attend the Canadian GP. I'll have to try some tactical planning with management.
