Thought you might all like to see the first production cars being built of the Perana One.



There are only going to be 999 cars overall, but the UK RHD ones will be much rarer and all indvidually numbered. The first UK car is currently being finished and will be with Mole Valley Motor Group soon. For some unfathomable reason, it's going to be in "Joust Blue" wink

If you want more details on this impressive car, then feel free to contact me or ask the question on here, but also you can go to their website http://www.perana.com/ or give Mole Valley a ring/email (http://www.mole-valley.co.uk/).

Looks like a meld of TVR, and an Aston.

This looks like a bargain so long as the price point doesn't change too much (IIRC Circa 50K euros)and lots of potential for a bit more poke if you want it LS3 power is easily upped to 500+ road friendly BHP, and then there was talk of LS7 power lick .

Any other distributers mooted for the UK?
I'll not be spending any of my hard earned at MV.

No idea. You'd need to fill in the form, but all I've heard of is MV so if you won't go there you may well be stuck.

I agree, looks very Aston from these slightly more side angles




It's hardly surprising as it's styled by Zagato, they of the Zagato Aston Martin's - especially the DB7.

Have to agree the back seems to have been forgotten, elsewhere very nice.

It's the same people that make the official Superperformance GT40 replica, the Cobra replica, and made the Noble M12/M400.

I hope to get my hands on the demonstrator soon.
