For all the talk of Caterhams, Westies and other derivs, and how they compare to the Elise, what do folk think of this Lotus 22 replicar one seater from Xanthos, powered by a Honda Fireblade engine?

I love it the car is actually built by :www.singleseaterracingcar.co.uk/english/index.htm But they are off-line till spring, very odd that

Does anyone know how much these cars cost in either kit-car or built form? I think the idea of such a car for the road is such a giggle.

Obviously no experience with the thing, but talk about driving a cart.

It does appeal, it certainly does.

Could anybody, when driving on the road, resist being naughty and taking those mudguards off?

(stupid law anyway...)
