I've always quite liked these. How does it drive compared to say an impress with similar power or compared to something like a TVR?

Ah very nice looked was talking to the guys that make the kits at Knockhill a couple of years ago little bit small for me for touring, but look great fun and with 4WD it will have loads of grip.

i see it as a 4wd tvr,mine should do high 3's low 4's to 60 no bother
i am 15 1/2 stone 5'10" and fit with a slight squeeze lol
i was at knockhill when adrenaline and bitz were there-rained all day typically!

Sorry ment luggage space as SWMBO takes all of her clothes for going away for the weekend. So the Chimaera/Cerbera work well with big boots.

What are they like to insure cheaper than a impreza i take it?

Looks great, but as with most kit cars the devil's in the detail.

The headlights look like they have a lip so a perspex cover can be fitted, therefore I think it'd look much better with a perspex cover over the lights.

Either that, or they should be flush like on the Tuscan.

If that was fixed the front would look amazing IMO.
