The thing I struggle with is that somebody drew these on a biy of paper and somebody else said "Well done!"

Sywell?
Yes to the left of the Hurricane is a white modern Ferrari (488?) and to the right of the Spitfire is a red Maranello. Both going high speed down the runway.

Hi there,

Yes I know I was at a show called Supercar Fest so the chances of seeing Supercars was nothing short of a dead cert however I thought some of the PH members might want to take a look at the two galleries on my site

I think these look fantastic

I also think that 90 percent of people would look bloody stupid driving one.

If I had the cash I’d be looking bloody stupid in the blink of an eye

It's important to know which of the somebodies you want to be able to spell, otherwise it's just a pointless aside which derails the thread.

It was an oddly dull day, smashed mine up and down the runway as well. Left at 1130.

Unicorn level....

Seen at the Suffolk show yesterday. The Strada.

Is it a 1 of 1 ? Kitcar ?

Has a 1599cc engine so likely Ford Crossflow .

not a bad looking thing , rather 1970s but that was when it was registered .smile
Some more information about Suffolk's only home grown sports car.

The idea that a car looks good, or bad will never be satisfactorily answered because it is an entirely subjective issue, unique to each individual.
When one person says that car looks fantastic / ugly, another will be thinking, WTF is he talking about?
