Anyone know what this is?


anyone

I don't have great pictures of it, looks to be tandem seating - hope they had aircon - it was roasting!

any suggestions please?

Not seen anything similar on the road before.

As you say, given the warm weather, hope they had decent aircon working in there!

Can't remember who made it or what it was called but it "unvailed" at Stafford show. They pulled the sheet off it to mild laughter. It was made for a guy who wanted something that looked like a fighter jet and if memory serves had a Volvo donor.

Vindicator f4.

It looks like a tandem seating arrangement with the rear seat sitting higher, almost like a fighter plane cockpit, it even has a step

I don't have a view of the rear of the car but it does look pretty broad ended.

it is very distinctive

Built by John at Vindicator cars. The guy who paid for the build did indeed want a fighter jet for the road & that's pretty much what he finished up with.

It was largely Mondeo based IIRC, Duratec lump with an auto box - probably why it's broad at the rear. I thought it was rather imaginative, but most people seem to hate it, but then my tastes seem a little more eclectic than most!

thank you - it is certainly distinctive!

Fantastic car, but for some reason I want it to have huuuuge rear wheels!

I've never seen it at any of the shows though, I'd certainly remember it. Is there only one?
