Being plagued by Yori

[atom290]

Is anyone else getting constant emails from this guy?

Or am I just the lucky one?

Dont really care anymore as all of his emails are going direct to the bin without getting £200 on passing go

Oulook rules are great!!!

Yes ,I got one or two,I just ignored them.

I never replied and never got pestered... yet!

[ross.mcw]

Ditto. He must like you Jon

[atom290]

I dont want him to like me

I think from what he has said that he wants me to send him full drawings of the car!!

I told him to buy one that way he can do the drawings for himself

[ross.mcw]

He'd probably end up with a Deronda F400 if he did that - anyone see it at the motorshow?

Looked better in the flesh than the pics, but pug-ugly nevertheless.

[atom290]

I actually like the Deronda [runs for cover!!]

It uses a very good power plant, with loads of capabilities.

It is quite a direct copy of the Atom, but I prefer the Atoms styling.

Not seen any track test results of the Deronda yet though.

The Deronda is a lovely car. Needs a rear spoiler, but I think it looks great.

I drove it a few weeks ago and I don't believe anyone who enjoys driving wouldn't get out of it without a big smile on his face. It is very fast - 4 secs to 60 - and handles beautifully - like a hard Elise. I think with a little more development it will be an excellent alternative to the Elise/220T. (or even Radical/Atom!)

I think Ross hit the nail on the head with his description of the Deronda ! I don't think it would ever be an alternative to an Atom as most owners have chosen the Atom as the best alternative to everything else, and wrong, they are not !!

[ross.mcw]

With the Atom, it's simple, the design is based around function. With the exception of the tea tray at the back which I still haven't really worked out a need for, everything that's there is there because it has to be.

With the Deronda it's just kind of over designed and has ended up looking too fussy. Shame, because I'd love there to be more cars around like the Atom.

I've no doubt that it drives well enough....but if you bought a Deronda, you just weren't ever destined to be an Atom owner.....

[HobGoblin]

It would be a poorer world if we all agreed.

The Deronda is, if you like, a road going version of the Atom - it will have weather-proofing ie a roof, windscreen wipers etc, and it has panels to stop the rain coming in so the comparison is not quite the same. Whatever, in my humble opinion, they are both beautiful cars.
