Interesting new middy clubman
Just reading the Geneva Motor Show report on
Ultimate Car Page and came across this very
interesting little beastie from Ken Okuyama Design - the K.O 7.
There's also a K.O 8 Coupe but it's the appropriately names 7 that really catches my eye. Opinions?

I think it looks more like a Motoleria, with the dual hoop, Very Nice though. IIRC don't Caterham get Very upset about anyone using the 7
branding?

That's true - I had forgotten about their possessiveness of a single digit (I notice they don't have any issues with BMW using it ).
The thing I left out of my original post was the expected price. The aim is a production run of 99 cars at circa US$100,000 each

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it looks like it has doors, which only leaves a fairly small sill section in the middle. Unless it has an enornous
centre tunnel, which a can't see room for wouldn't it just fold up in the middle!!!
I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator
headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names
furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours.

The details are beautiful!
The 'details' photos on the website are great - the LED headlights on the coupe, the wishbones, the wheels, I could go on.
Luurrrvely.....

When thinking outside the box doesn't work any more, it's time to build a new box

Sorry, but it leaves me cold. Too "fussy" for a lightweight car, plus the wheels are not to my taste at all. Looks like a toy
"future car" done by hotwheels in the 70's.

You can do it quickly. You can do it cheap. You can do it right. – Pick any two.
