Thorough testing has been done and their car passed SVA testing and is legal for the road. To further show the strength of the design a Jaguar V12 was installed in a larger version of the kit.


Eh? Road legal, not as standard anymore. V12 jag in a "larger version"? WTF is that about?

Coveland are official importers of robinbritishsomething. He did say he wouldn't sell it until was proven road legal, I do wonder what happens when a yank sticks an LS1 lump in it. That should show how strong the chassis is.

From what I understand the US road worthiness test is quite easy, worrying really.
