Lots of Dosh Required

Am I the only one who thinks the front of the CV8 looks like a cross between the original TVR Speed 12 and a new style Renault Clio?

Probably am in which case I'll get my coat.

It's certainly different but it's grown on me. Particularly with all the dull slabs of steel coming out of the mainstream manufacturers I think there's definite market for something like this. I just hope they pull it off.

I think there's an elephant of truth in what you say, IPAddis..... interesting

I knew it reminded me of something!!

I hope they get the funding they need as I'd hate to see them go under.

The CV8 is a particularly well balanced design - I like it a lot.

You're right, but the CV8 design was around long before the Clio. (but it is remarkably similiar!)

Well its certainly different, but what is the pricing? This will be going head to head with TVR, Noble, Lotus and others. They need sensible pricing to sell it (assuming they can get the financing they need now).
