So buy one and do it, you already have 80% of the work done by me, should be a breeze.
Me, I'll stick to the proven formula (for now at least) and don't you see anything at all in that people have had the chance to follow your proposal for the last 50 years but haven't?
How many Kurtis replica kits out there Vs Lotus replica kits? One that I know of and the red one above is one of them with about 2 dozen brothers from that company Vs 600 per year just from Caterham alone.
jeez, settle down, lighten up,
you asked for commentary. so that's mine, the styling you have so far is wide and flat-ish in section, kinda like the K500S.
Takes nothing away from the work you've already done. the key caveat in my comment was "If it were me..." but I left of the obvious other shoe "...and I know it isn't..."
