Summary

5 out of 5

What does this car say about you?
Individual thinking, Stylish and a real headtunrner.

What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
Most children LOVE it, again this is the acid test as they are uninfluenced by motoring snobery or opinion. A bit loud with SS exaust. Every one who has been a passnger loved it!

Would you buy this car again and why?
yes. They ar enow so affordable and lotts of opportunity to upgrade as bits fall off. They will become rare (as those left are not provided with the TLC they need) and I belive will become a collectable classic.

What are you likely to buy next?
TVR Cerbera for all the same reasons.
