Another Vortx hits the road!

After close to a years worth of red tape and
deadends our Vortx was finally issued with
its new registation last week.

So as the summers still here let the fun begin

More pics in archive.

That's a nice looking car. The first one I've seen with a glove box.

I can only see one thing wrong with the car. The wheel is on the wrong side

Nice job, thats a big duct on the side.

The wheel on the left seems to work for me

The engine bay duct was needed as average summer temps here are aournd 30c
and with just the bonnet vents it was running too hot.

Great news! I am so curious how you got through regitstration... did you do everything in Slovakia or you had SVA and then imported the car? Can you give me ideas on costs for the registration? You can U2U me if not wishing to share...

I might have to go and take a look at it one weekend...

Brilliant looking car!

I'm pleased the wheels look so nice as I've got the same!

The car looks like it's had a keen eye building it. It's always the little things that make the difference. Like the dash and the glove box, the side duct behind the rad at the side, the stripes on the inside of the bonnet duct and top of the dash, the side protector strips on the tops of the side panels and the boot cover.

Great work! 8D

I'm aiming for a similar look with black sides and rear panel and then nose, bonnet and wings in red. Did you use an R1 motor? What year?

Chris.
