Very Ariel Atom but distictive and I think I prefer it. Maybe borrowing the rear end chassis from that MEV Rocket and the front and middle being Roadster based but with variations to take account of the lengthened rear end, e.g. shorter front.

In my hunt for MR2 mk1 based kit cars I came across this: http://www.grabercars.com/

The fully built price is a bit scary ($25K) and the kit isnt even fully designed/written up yet. Lots of credit to the guy though as it looks well thought out. It gives me something to work from but I think the shape of the body is dull.

I'll draw up what I'd like for the body work and post it up so you can see what I'm thinking bodyshell wise although I suspect it would be far too heavy/time consuming/impractical/aerodynamically dangerous to make.
