Which company is it that is making the spaceframe?
My Dad came within a whisker of buying the Cara kit car company when it was for sale in the 90s, I was gutted when the deal fell through and it included a lovely demonstrator. I have been tempted many times to build a replica.
Thanks for posting this one up, lovely car.
My friend knows the Mr Karidies who is "the plastic surgeon to the stars" and he has recently sold his RS200 road car as he could not get on with it despite running a T16 Pug 205, I read that Jethro Bovingdon drove one for EVO and said it felt awful until you were going very quickly as the diffs felt like they were fighting each other, I imagine a replica might be smoother using road car stuff?
I found an unfinished one recently but the chap wanted too much for what needed to be finished and that was based on SAAB stuff.
