Decently executed? Check.

Frankly ridiculous power-to-weight ratio? Check.

What's not to like?

If there's more than 263BHP then I'll have it otherwise I'd rather buy a used Caterham R500.

Guessing around 190-200 bhp which can be upped with a chip i suppose or you could pull the engine out and slot in a 3l straight six maybe.

The key for me is the sound as the ford? engined ones dont make the nicest of noises.

I think you will find its a proper dealer in sa even has the dealers number on the ad.

Its one of the weirder things is that there is very little use made of auto trader in sa most seem to advertise on gumtree.

I see what you mean, but for me sound isn't that important aslong as it doesn't sound horrible.
