[AlexF2003]

[Add_Gee]

Yer i dont think thats rwd, you can see the rears locked up when handbraking round, also it dosent squat down like a rwd car would.
Plus the back must be real light weight for it to come up and the end like that.

crazy bit of kit that anyway :grin: sounded ace!

There's also something wrong with the video, it's been cranked or frame dropped or something but it's not quite right.


(I think I say that everytime this video shows up..... Maybe I'll stop now as it's probably getting boring)

look closely at the entire backpanel.... there is no gap where the bootlid should be, leading me to believe it is all one solid piece of lightwheight fiberglass or carbonfiber.... probally boot floor too and more than likely running on a rear beam axle all this would make it super light. And it IS front wheel drive!

ahh this was posted before, there 14 inch alloys on te fron, and they look like 12 inch steelies on the back to save weight!

I heared somebody saying its a RWD R1 engine.

pretty sure it isnt... But like has been said, I think its probably all one shell too...

[mattvallins]

How much easier would it be to park in Tescos in that

[Pooky]

Does anyone speak french? (if that's what the announcer bloke is talking?) maybe he tell us what it is!
