That looks the business ! Quite like the stealthy colour too. Liking the engine choice too - were you tempted to supercharge it ?

When the scheduled completion date for the full maiden outing ? Good work fella

Great project! - like the colour - 'stealthy' is right - looks like a very fast moving rain cloud :)

Sorted the speedo, throttle stutter and the panelgaps this evening so took it a run / brought it back up to town.

Looking at the reflections in windows as I headed back to the carpark made it all worthwhile, I love it, colour looks even better at night than in the daytime :D

very lovely indeed :thumbsup 8)

My only concern is that by sorting the panel gaps you'll ensure that everyone knows that t's not a real s1 exige :damnfunny :wink:
Focus ST estate, i3s and more pushbikes than strictly necessary.

....did i ever tell you about the Evora and VX220 i used to own?

JJ took my car to show the bodyshop what the panels should look like when they are done and they thought my car was made up of dodgy replica clams his were the genuine lotus ones
