Have to admit, I've never heard of one before, but it does look vaguely familiar.

Fook me at the price tag though!

It was on Top Gear, Clarkson spent 5 minutes slagging it off then it went and smashed the lap record but was disqualified for not being road legal.

It is road legal, it's just too low for speed bumps.

Also Clarkson can't drive it propley.

Gordon Murray helped design it.

It I remember correctly, a New Zealand company made it, or were making the second version of it but were running into financial difficulties so it's been put on hold. Isn't it effectively meant to be a road version of an F1 car or something like that?

Conceptually, it's a road legal Indy 500 car IIRC.

If you have 270k to spend on a car, a couple of rear tires will be pocket change!

Definitely a long list of other cars I'd buy with that kind of money before I'd bother with that.

Yeah you're dead right, I mean a £270k car is totally relative to a £270k house.

immense. love the jag drifting at 2

if i was a multi millionaire i would like to buy one just to cruise about in and have blokes and their kids (not paedo) look and point in amazement as i drove down the highstreet.

obviously you'd have to work out your route beforehand as you'd look a right berk when you get to a speedhump

They're special ones just for that car, and I think they're stupid money a corner.

If we had that sort of money to spend on cars, I would have both!

Well if you're selling a £270K car, you can afford to sell it with legal tyres on it surely.

That all assumes you can get them. I remember some stories of people not being able to use supercars because of the availability of tyres.
