Anyone here got one? Or driven one? Or know anything about them? They seem like a real (and very reasonably priced) hoot to me. I really rather fancy one as a track day hack.

I know both of the Talon guys and I've been 'round both Donington and Brands in one and they are simply awesome.

Imagine a 160 bhp Metro....

Now imagine that that REALLY doesn't give any idea of what the car will actually do!!!

If I wanted a trackday car, I'd go and see them now.

I used to have a S2 Elise engined Metro superb fun!, there's a good site called www.metropower.co.uk that has a load of fast Metro's on it.

The best Tracday Metro that I've seen is the Reyland Metro, playing with Cosworths on a track, and showing thhem a clean pair of heels!, the video is on Youtube somewhere.

These look awesome. £3795 for a 145bhp VVC. Does that include VAT and the cost of the donor car?? Seems very cheap.

If I had sufficient parking for two cars, I'd definitely get one of these as a weekend fun car.
