New Design - What do you think

[Bespoke Car Design]

Our designer has come up with a design which is like a few other cars on the market but we will be producing it for around £10,000 - £13,000 unlike others around 35k;)

So what do you think of the design. We will be using the Honda Integra Engine running around 300bhp.

We would welcome any comments from you guys. We are based in the west midlands so thought we would post in this section

I like!
Being a car enthusiast I've always liked the look of the Ariel Atom and the Wrightspeed X1 spinoff.. but one with similar looks at a much lower pricetag is very interesting :)

Will keep you updated ;)

Really like the look of that - and the price makes it even more attractive - if you can actually achieve a quality product for near that price, then keep me posted about developments.

There maybe some way we can help/do business - we have access to some large sections of the petrolhead and/or high net worth population.

Good luck.

The price is easy to achieve. Most companies add on design time etc to a car. But at the end of the day it needs to be designed and why should the paying customer have to foot that bill.

We want to offer our service without the silly pricing

Im surprised at that comment as my husband has recently built an AC Cobra replica and parts alone (excluding the body and chasis) are in the region of that price..

All I can do is oooh and aaaah....you guys are really good!

When I was a kid my dad used to buy this little magazine filled with 'kit cars'...though they didn't look nearly as solid as that design.

The chassis looks like the Mev Rocket:

Hi Earl,

same car my guy has built (although its not cost quite that much (better not have anyway), what engine did your partner put in it? and when did he build?

The costs of parts vary for what you do. AC Cobra parts will always be expensive. And our chassis etc is made in house. So the price is cheaper. I can always charge alot more if you want lol.

Hi Dave,

You didn't think of going bigger? Ben (husband) plans to put in a stroked ford v8, upto 427, I keep saying its big enough but he wont have it, how does yours handle?

That looks nice Earl, shame about the lack of use...all that effort.

Stunning looking car Earl. Always been one of my favs

Beatiful looking cars. Are the photographs scaled models of them or actual production versions? Being quite small it's difficult to tell.

The reason I ask is if these are production versions I think you should have some photographs taken on the road in inspiring country settings. The showroom style views look great, but I think people would be able to aspire to them more by showing them being driven.

Even better, consider having a video made of them being driven so the viewer can not just see them but hear them roar too!

All the best to you with these cars - they are fab.

[Bespoke Car Design]

These are just the designs. We go into production in about 5 weeks on the LM the gt and gtt have already been started

I thought they probably were but it was difficult to be sure from the the photos. How long will they take to produce?

[Bespoke Car Design]

The GT and the GTT arpprox 3/4 months

The GT and the GTT arpprox 3/4 monthsPerfect for people aspiring for a new car for the spring. The production versions are going to look fabulous I am sure.

[Bespoke Car Design]

Hope so:) We are having alot of the engine panels etc gold plated for that extra special look. And thats at no extra cost

Hi Karen,

I have made a lot of improvements to the chassis and suspension etc...so it now handles perfect in the dry!

My car only passed the SVA last April and I have covered approx 2,000 miles but would have been more, is our summer weather was better:rolleyes:

The power from a v8 is more torque then BHP if you go to santa pod they are only interested in torque:cool:

Has Ben driven a Cobra before?

My wife loves the Cobra but hates the brutal acceleration!

Here is a link to my garage: http://www.cobraclub.com/gallery/showphoto.php/photo/2012

Is Ben a member of the Cobra Forum?

That looks pretty cool... is it a ground up design/build? Would there be a kit option like the Caterhams?
