The dealer advertising this says "These cars are built to compete with the highly desirable Lotus Elise.". Hmmmm, really?

At that price I'd say it will struggle to be taken seriously and the interior belies the claim that it's not a kit car. Of course, proof of the pudding etc. Anybody driven one?

Hmmm ... but you got to love the blokes who run the dealership. This is what they say about the Jet Provost they're trying to sell

I SHOULD POINT OUT THAT WE KNOW VERY LITTLE ABOUT MILITARY JETS AND THAT WE ARE MERELY CAR DEALERS THAT LIKE TO COLLECT THINGS, SO KEEP ANY QUESTIONS SIMPLE PLEASE.

I actually heard an interesting story behind the birth of this comarth...

There once was a clio V6 that ventured into some muddy rural fields where it was propositioned by one sl@g of a tractor. After much tail out action and 9 months later, this comarth b*st@rd popped out. One mid engined 'sports car' with a tractor like cabin, oh how I pity the fool that will be perched behind that steering wheel towing a trailer stacked with hay bails. I heard this car dealer is also offering comarth embroidered barbour jackets, ofcourse you will not be wearing one because of a leaky roof.

ooo arrr farmer giles. I do tend to ramble in these posts
