I'd like to shed some darkness on it, if possible. Ugly mo' fo'.

It looks like a failed prototype...

I know someone from my old uni course was involved in the design of it, but can't remember any details... In a way it's reassuring to see it's not just the British start up companies folding.

i recall that it said on top gear, that it had a suzuki motorcycle engine and that it weighed 600 kg
( funny smiliey)

Could it be based on the Suzuki Gsxr 1000/4?
a motorbike engined car designed by Suzuki for The ps2 game Gran Turismo 4 i think..*

• This could be utter rubbish dreamt up by an overactive car based imagination.

on top gear the car was paired with an mtm bimoto, quite an odd combination, and i've always had this niggling thought maybe the AS and MTM were working together on the AS one?
