Went along to the motorshow and had the upmost pleasure of spending about 40mins chatting to Arash Farboud.
He had bought along his running prototype that had just come back from a cross continent jaunt to Monaco.
It really is a fantastic car to look at in the metal. £75k for the car is good value and the figures suggest its performance will be suitable for such a price.

He's one of us... a true petrolhead doing what he has dreamed of doing.

Personally... its a lot better looking than the Noble M14 (sorry Noble... )

But it did stink of petrol inside there and the car did seem generally pretty rough around the edges. Baring in mind that im used to the TVR style build quality, it was pretty shocking for a production ready car @£70k+

im sure Arash is a very nice bloke, but his car isnt finished yet, looks promising though.

Not difficult to get!

Anyways, will we ever see more than these 2 cars? The spec of the car has changed from Porsche GT1 lookalike to more of a KZ1 look and they've backed out of the rental on that Norfolk airfield. Have the construction techniques of the car changed too? Are they still built totally in carbon?
