Discussion
Well have a look at this baby and tell me what you think! www.circuitdriver.com/showpage.asp
scroll down to the single easter, thats it!
its 16k plus vat which to me is a shame cos that nearly 19k and my mrs said rollocks or something!
Now although this may be a bargain, its still a wedge out the account. please have a look and see if you think its worth it!

Saw it at Stoneleigh.
It's now in the hands of Tiger who used to have a good reputation. It looked a nice package, using a brand new zetec engine with a very fancy exhaust which is going to bump up the costs. It is a track car though so I imagine there is a good margin in it for them as I doubt they'll sell more than is needed for the race series

the thing is, would you buy this for 19k or would you buy a second hand formula renault or you could buy a formula three car for 10k and still have 9k in the bank. Or you could send off for a Tornado GT40 kit, blowed if i know.
what would the ERA be worth after a few years if you built one? Good value or not?

Tiger racing have a group on Yahoo, if you are interested in there products it would pay you to have a look back through some of the postings, the era is a reasonably pretty car BUT if the quality is as my Avon then i would not want to go quick in one. of course that is just my opinion and what would i know.......
It is very brave of Jim Dudley to launch the ERA but I think the pricing will prevent it being a commercial success. There are far too many second hand single seaters out there and unlike the ERA these more cost effective alternatives are known quantities with proven track records.
I like the retro look of the car but the roll hoop bracing spoils it for me. I accept the need for a brace but that one looks a bit over engineered and dominates the view of the back of the car.
