Eye-catching, but not my cup of tea.

I'd rather have a Monaro and save £5k   :)

Looks OK ,but no go. Puny 6cyl,dreadful handling,no more a hotrod than a PT Cruiser. A badly made pastiche with which Daimler-Benz hoped to cash in on the 'retro' fad of a few years ago.
At least the owner has removed the hideous front bumper and replaced it with aftermarket light pods.
Just a personal opinion, but anyone over the age of 25 driving one of these looks really sad. :(

It kinda looks like it wants to be a Lotus 7 and a yank tank at the same time and I doubt it's any good at either, or anything, for that matter.

OK I suppose if you've got a few quid and you have one for a "toy", but nor for me.

Anyone who buys that over a Monaro is clinically insane!  ::)

My goodness! That takes me back. One of my school friends drove one of those. Engine sounded like a steam engine and had about the same willingness to rev!

Spray it black with a picture of a yellow bat on the side and it might be OK :-/
