Nice one ! The engineering on this car is awesome. Forget the roads as it needs to be on a track to get the full benefit of the handling ability. Well done Caparo. I saw in another press release that Sean Butcher masterminded the financing for the project. Anyone who can do this and for a car has my full attention. Cheers, Pete.
