As a 72 year old who has had an interest in kit cars for most of my last 55 years I thought I'd seen them all but this is a new one to me.

Rather pretty from some angles but slightly less so from others. Fascinating none the less.

Very Diva - ish, not surprising given that Heron made the bodies for Don Sim as mentioned in the ad.




Not as pretty as the Diva imho, but an interesting stage in the evolution nonetheless.

Yes, not unatractive but I just hate the latest trend for this type of stitched interior.

I rather like that, it needs another spoiler at the rear, as it looks like they grafted another cars front on the back,

I can't help wondering which car's rear screen is in the front of the Europa?

My guess would be Ford Consul as per TVR Grantura.

I couldn't even hazard a guess, but I can ask Don Sim when I next see him. He may or may not remember what screen was fitted to the Diva, which was a close relative of this one.
