The Type G is extended to take the Corvette V8 engine (you know what they American's are like, its got to be bigger regardless as 'there aint no substitute for cubes') There's more V8's in the USA they are readily available and cheap.
The Type F is lighter and takes a longitudinal Audi powerplant. So there's plenty of variations to play with if you want to. Personally 400 bhp per tonne from a 4 pot is oodles to play with in my books. and the Type F is prettier I think.
As it's now out in the public domain (see Stoneleigh show guide), if you'd like to see the Deronda then pop along to Stoneleigh and we'll be very happy to talk to you about it and you can try it for size, in the meantime here's an overview www.QdosCars.co.uk/deronda

It's completely different to the Atom. about the only thing that's similar is it has some exposed chassis. If you'd like to read about it then look out for the next issue of Complete Kit Car. The Type F runs a mid mounted longitudinal Audi/VAG engine (A4, A6 or TT or indeed you could get one out of a VW,Skoda or SEAT). The current demonstrator / track car is a 1.8 tubo putting out 300bhp. A V6 is being considered for the road demonstrator. If someone wants to try the V8 from the A8 then even that may well fit in too. Weight is 667kg

qdos - Do you have any pricing information on the cars yet? And is it only one trim spec or are there options for carpets and leather etc.?
I'm in the market for a 7 type car at the moment but this is about the only non-7 car that has caught my attention.... partly due to the 1.8T engine choice.

You supply engine and gearbox plus your choice of wheels and tyres and the rest can be had for £14k to build the whole car. Lots of fancy options should you want them such as Aerofoil section wishbones and Ohlins dampers for example. The car is an open top track machine, so leather and carpets are not the sort of thing normally asked for, but if you want them I am certain it can be arranged. Top quality neighbours who trim and restore vintage Rolls Royce for should give you an idea for example I'm in the market for a 7 type car at the moment but this is about the only non-7 car that has caught my attention.... partly due to the 1.8T engine choice.
