It's a one off scratch built car. Named the ASBO by it's builder.

Very nice bit of work.

Remember seeing it at Stoneleigh 2011? Looks like it's had some colour change - Indeed a nice job with super looking welds!

The ASBO is now a two-off, as the builder Robin Davis sold the first one to a friend and built another for himself. He is now considering going into production with the car.

Complete Kit Car did a feature on the car in the December 2010 issue, available here: http://www.completekitcar.co.uk/Issue/december2010...

looks like the Son of an Ariel Atom and an MEV Rocket.

Exo cars are certainly very in vogue right now, but with V-Storm and MEV/RTR producing 6 different Exo cars between them, is the market place not in danger of getting a little overcrowded for a new manufacturer to appear and do the same?

I really like to get in touch with the builder of the ASBO's, Robin Davies. Does anybody know his full adress or email/ phone. I am very interested in building one, specified for the Netherlands. Many thanks in advance - Sjaak
