That looks like something my 16 year old lad would have designed - what is it?

Sorry thought I had linked it. It's a Trident Iceni.

I rather like it, even though it uses the devils fuel

The black FHC in #1 looks fab - I'm not so sure about the linked car.

 

[IanA2]

Agreed I prefer the hard top version.

Sounds a lot like a GM/Isuzu Duramax V8 engine, not sure what part of Britain that comes from...its got a fat ass too

 

[moonloops]

Front end looks like a guppy fish also..

For some time now I've had a thing for fat-****d guppy looking cars flying under a flag of convenience; but I like Picasso & Moore too, so I won't be losing any sleep if my taste is questioned

What did Freddie Truman ( Those that are old enough ) say in reply to a player after running up to bowl ? "You Have a Fat Ass Freddie " He replied.

" You Need a Heavy Hammer to Knock in A Big Nail "

Saw this at Silverstone Classics last year. It is AWESOME in the flesh and looked very well built.

Good to know. The base price is 90K which whilst not low, seems reasonable(ish) for what is pretty much a super car. But I suppose the real "on the road" price, with all the toys, may well be different

Is that the same firm which was around in the 70's?

Yup....one and the same.

Where are they based now? I can remember their works in Ipswich.

The fastest diesel sports car in the world can run 2000 miles on a single tank-- does really depend on the size of the tank no?

A mate's older sisters boyfriend had one, a Venturer IIRC, took me for a short ride. I was very impressed I was as a non driving teenager at the time.

 

[balge]

Hey mine could do that...with a 60 gallon tank
