Colin can you tell me what its decibel level i?. I’d be looking to use it on track Andrew

[Dave Marsden]

Hello Andrew

Its Dave from PistonHeads

Speaking with the owner, the car is registered as road legal and has passed its IVA tests and complies with current road traffic acts, so would be no issue for track days, was the feedback provided.

I hope this helps, and good luck with your bidding on this amazing car.

Best wishes
Dave

Has this build got a monocoque or space frame chassis? Apologies if the answer lies within the ad, but couldn’t see it.

Reading up on the build forums from a little while ago, I see both types of chassis are/were a build option.

Thanks.

[Colin Hewitt]

Thanks for the query, the chassis is aspaceframe with bonded aluminium panels
