A1 around Cambridge today about 2.15pm. Two cars: swoopy 2-seater, no roof, but there were twin roll hoops. One orange on the back of a low loader, the met blue one being driven behind it by a chap in a Stig helmet.

Looked brand new being delivered.

They had the word TITAN in relief on the side panel just behind the door.

(actually it was the inlaws who saw it, so no more info than what's above sorry!)

I think I saw the orange one just outside Wymondam on the A11 yesterday morning around 10am, it was travelling south whilst I was going north.

Only caught a quick glimpse but didn't look anything I'd seen before.

I've no proper idea as to what you guys could have seen, but the Wymondham location made me think of Zenos Cars.

A Google of "Titan Zenos" bought up this page:

Was that the logo seen on the side?

Possibly mystery solved. I believe I know what these cars are.

Vuhl, a Mexican car company who are currently in the UK testing. An orange and blue car were at Snetterton today. I caught them this evening.
WEBSITE HERE

A track car of the same ilk as Zenos, running Ford engines.

IIRC, figures were 265bhp for the blue car three hundred plus for the orange one smile

If the low loader was blue and the car was bright orange, it was a VUHL. Saw them yesterday at Fiveways roundabout and was being lapped by it at Snetterton on Tuesday.
