True! And to be fair a RUF tuned flat 6 does sound rather enticing!

Not sure about the car but I love that garage, just missing a fridge for the beers and a kettle for a cuppa

what they don't disclose is that you also get a big rig and a camaro with it and then you are sent off to fight the might of the evil Decepticons!

What is the story with the Ultimate Aero II? It's been a very long time since I heard anything about that too! Same as the Zenvo. Both gone bankrupt? Or just keeping low profile?

I was at the motor show for the press launch on Monday, and can say without doubt that it's crap. Looks like something from transformers... And not the glossy CGI movies, but the actual toys - you remember when you try and turn it back into a car after it's been a robot and it doesn't quite fit, but it's almost ok so you just go with it. Don't worry that the foot is still sticking out the side....

I am thinking that they will take a few down payments and then disappear....

I'd rather believe I will win the heavyweight boxing world title in the next 2 years than that 100 of these 'cars' are sold....

It must have been a bulk order from the RNIB.

The point I was trying to make was....that it looks like a Mono with a roof!

So you need e marked glass
door catches
HVAC and demisting
Wipers

re test and approve all these things to ensure that all the radius are correct and that no one will get hurt if you hit them.

Test and approve door catches and hinges

if you have pillars you need to ensure that the field of view is sufficient etc.

Even small changes to an existing car opens a huge can of worms.

Glad you mentioned that!
Indeed it looks like a BAC Mono with a roof.

That makes the 3 Million plus price tag even more ridiculous.

BAC Mono is on my lottery list. This ''car'' is on my st list.
