It has a very short wheelbase because the propshaft was eliminated to save weight, and the gearbox output bolts directly to the rear differential
because the engine is set so far back.
looks like a pig to get in and out thjough.
It has been availalbe in kit car form, probably for a lot less £££ but still more than £ 250. A lot more.

It looks really hard... interesting that it seems like you would sit between the rear wheels!

There's more than a touch of E-type in there.
Stunning car with some interesting bits of design!
Far too expensive for what it is tho, it's not historic, nor genuine. Nor will it in any way be better than it's modern rivals. It's
a car you buy just 'cos.

"No propshaft, gearbox bolts straight onto the diff...." just doesn't seem right to me. At least you don't have to worry
about a propshaft retainer!
Means you are literally sitting on top of the diff and by the look of it the fuel tank as well. Certainly wouldn't like to go off backwards into
a hinkelstein (a la M5 at Bovingdon).
Too scary for me by far.
Cheers, Pewe

3.5 million Series Land Rovers owners say it is not that bad, except for the frazzled ones ofcourse.
Never heard of the underseat fuel tanks giving any trouble, apart from rustng due to age.
