I wonder what the legality of a twin engine car is??
Probably it should have had a SVA test??!

The thing is your mate who had a passion and was insanely talented probably would have written an ad explaining how well it was put together, not that it was puar rapid and showed the big boys what was what lol.

A mid (and front) engined Saxo! Imagine the potential destruction to the driver and passenger if this car was to be rear ended by a 4wd or lorry on a motorway, even worse would be a fog related pile up. Getting rear ended in this could result in piles of cars.

I just assume that someone with the ability to do such a thing would also be able to spell, I mean why not? They're clearly intelligent and if they're capable of learning to do that, then surely capable of learning basic English? Baffles me.
EDIT: Not really a criticism as such, it baffles me in the same way Matt can make amazing burgers yet can't fry an egg.

Rear wheels are only just sat inside the arch,& for someone who build race cars for a living i'd expect them to be better educated.

Looks like they're poking out a bit!
Just looks like it's on some wonky camber, for that one wheel only.

what a sorry looking piece of shit, and good luck finding alternate roads every time you come across a speed bump. Less than factory pace if running on one engine and nightmare mpg on 2.
