Farbio

[mahju]

A little off topic, but got to have a look around a Farbio (2nd off the production line) whilst my lotus was getting its headlamp fitted....



nice enough car, finish on the seals not perfect, but otherwise a nice motor.

Now if the eagle thread is to be believed, its not too far off the its spec...

If the Eagle is as good looking as the Farbio then Lotus are onto a winner. Even if the power isn't that great to start with that can always be fixed... they just need to get the look just right first time round IMO!

Interesting that door mirrors on the Farbio seem to be identical to those on the Eagle spy shots...

I really hope the Farbio does well. It's a design I like, and the £ for performance is excellent vs. the competition. Would be good to see a very small British Sportscar company do well for a change.

Let's hope the Eagle can mix it!

STUNNING CAR..The factory is just down the road from me..OK more like down the motoeway but saw a silver one around the Bath area and must say it was STUNNING...Good luck to them I say.

Is the factory not in Bath then?

76 litre fuel tank and lightweight I bet it has excellent range.

Yep it's just outside Bath in a little place called Dyrham.

Ah I know it well. We pass it every day.

Looks good and practical to boot, see if anyone buys them, but very well executed.

Price ?

[Andyt25]

59K for the standard car and I think around 70k for the Super charged one.

I think it looks like a Lotus and a TT have mated.

Nice car!

I just wish they could loose that door cut out/Duct.

It just looks a bit odd and almost bact-to-front IMHO

I would put up with it if you forced me to thought!

under protest, obviously.

[clarencegi77]

cooling for the brakes, surely it justifies the need for the vents? looks great still anyway...

[Andyt25]

I do like the back...

It looks much better in these pics although my first thought was "Ford Cougar".

[Andyt25]

Ford Couger....Noooooooooo.....I love the way everyone looks at a car in a different way.

I still think that air duct looks back to front.

Especially since this looks NOTHING like a Cougar!
