Nikolai Fomenko that is.

The styling reminds me of the Land Rover from Judge Dredd somewhat.

They've bought a controlling stake in the Virgin F1 team so they might just sell a few.

The CEO says that they need competitors. I wonder if he's spoken to Smolenski recently...

I went for a ride in that at Top Marques. I'll dig out the pictures. Didn't seem that special - but then I'd just driven the Weissmann. My over-riding memory of the Marissa was the LCD screens so that you could powerpoint your passenger.

The B2 isn't the prettiest of cars but the B1 is actually alright looking.

Been working on the engines for the B1 one recently. Will be interesting to hear the official reviews when they come out, they're certainly not slow but they are by no means conventional!
