I think on the show the diff carrier was choppd about in some way and collapsed.
However, that's a half decent price for the full setup and with a bit of development any issues can be ironed out.

If it's only been driven round the car park how does he know it does 0 to 60 in 3.2 secs.
Must be some car park !!

Sorry for being thick here, but can someone remind me of the heritage of this project?
Was this a development of the MK GT1?
The MK GT2 became the Spire Cars one didn't it?
Cheers

Hi,
The dominator was a very very very loose copy of the GT1. with probably the only interchangeable bits been the bodywork.
A GT1 was purchased by Mr X whom later started production of the Dominator, heard a similar story to this before before ?
Mr X is also the person selling the said car on ebay.

£10k for an Dominator, or £9k for a GT1?

could be worth a gamble, if you could enlist the help of martin to get the chassis anything like reasonable and still be capable of using the bodywork
moulds.
The thing that puts me off a spire is that he has changed the design to incorporate a sierra diff not the original chain drive
