You should get in there for some of that midlands development money - I challenge you to make a worse job than that GTM. Your main investment will be
in a giant Lego set - anyone know where to buy Lego in that size, or is it plastic Meccanno?
I am well aware that my car is not to everybodies taste, but at least people either love it or hate, it would be a brave (or very foolish) man who
said he loved that "thing". 
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.

to even speak about your F1 in the same sentence as that pile of crap would be a deep insult to your car!!!

Speculating wildly, but did they just get some car design students together put all the wilder concept designs on the table and then pick one bit from
each...
More seriously, I wonder how much of the £quarter million went on salaries for the 'design team' and any associated
'consultants'.

was that like that on this year's one?
I only had a glance and it was MUCH better than last years, which was actually worse than my brother's first ever attempt at welding.
It was not only poor, it was unsafe and would fail MOT, let alone SVA or god forbid type approval!!!

their next model? just cant deside who did a better job.
