I thought I saw one, but I just found a pic of one to check, and realised it wasn't
Dunno how to describe it, it looked pretty badboy, and very familliar..
I've had it drive past me about 4 times /
It's really really flat, and low to the ground, looks as if it could even drive underneath lorries. It's not small in the other dimensions though.
Its got a cockpit like the batmobile, but only one like compartment, with the man inside. It was like the clear perspex dome of a fighter jet. & it was red.
If I saw a picture of one I'd be able to say for definite whether that's it.
So if anyone knows what I mean , can you suggest what it is , cos Im dying to know !
Thanks
Edit - it was similar to these :
 
But completely red

nope - it wasnt a lister storm - the window was like one piece of clear dome, completely rounded
just seen a pic of that pagani zonda - yep thats the closest thing to it so far ! very similar, might be it !
don't think i was the mclaren F1 - the dome was more oval
yep - that pagani zonda is definitely the closest so far , sexy beast.
- I just dont remember those big front arches tho

Those Zonda's are like a V12 (or something) right?
The 70 mark is about a 1/4 or a way around the speedo aren't they?

I dont know actually then !
It definitely looks identical - front and back, but Im not 100% sure that's what it is
I'll have to try and see it again to confirm, every time I've seen it so far its been on the exact same bit of road .
It just sounded nice and loud with plenty of 'warrppppp', like most sporty cars do,
