You've got images in the AOC forum, but you can do exactly the same thing here, except you need to put http://www.aeonownersclub,com/ beforehand.



(If you're still unsure, just quote a reply to this to have a look at the code.)

Doesn't seem to have progressed beyond a model yet.

Unfortunately, Aeon are still deciding upon it - and it's a bit of a catch-22 situation.

They don't want to start making it until they've got an (some?) order - but people don't want to buy until they see it.

That's not really a catch 22. You can't expect to sell something that doesn't exist.

indeed you have to make at least one working real car...
it looks lovely, and also a bit practical, so it could work with low volume's and some parts to use it the whole year.
low weight and some nice engine options would be nice.

I wonder of next week we will find it has "Caterham" written on the back of it??

No; you're right - but in their eyes, that's how they see it.

Any idea of the projected cost? I presume the problem is making the pattern and the moulds (an expensive business with a shape like that).

I think it was in the region of 30.000....but you may find more info on locostbuilders on this thread:
