no v6 versions - smart decided not to go ahead with them as they have stopped roadster production.

They Did make em, perhaps never got to 200, but I've seen one. They were never intended for us common folk anyway, onley mercedes top bods.

any thoughts on going for the zcars R1(carb) set up but keeping 10 inch minilights?? want to keep the old school look. i was thinking that it would be undrivable with the standard R1 transmission and such small wheels?

chris allanson at zcars said that they use 13's only becuase of having use big brakes, but i'm currently using minispares alloy 4pots, which can be widened to take vented discs. surely this set up would be capable

those 4 pots would be absoloutely fine on 7.5 inch solid disks at the rear. just make sure you use 4pots and vented at the front. put a spacer on the rear
