The Evija looks awesome - it's a kind of mix between 70's and contemporary styling. Love all the design details.

Colin Chapman didn't like it when customers specified paint on his cars. A bare aluminium 7 is 2kg lighter than a painted one.
You try and win back those 2 kgs with magnesium castings, CF etc.
Bare aluminium - absolute nightmare to keep clean.
V8 hehe, have to be a DFV then? Part of it rather than in it.

V8 hehe, have to be a DFV then? Part of it rather than in it. I've had a V8 before, in my BMW 540i. That was a 4.4l developing "only" 286bhp, in other words barely working hard (but enough to sustain 150mph for an hour chasing a Porsche down the Autoroute). I'm thinking of something more potent, possibly flat plane crank like some of the best Japanese V8s. What I'd like is a Lexus LFA but I don't happen to have a spare million lying around. And it's a V10.

Would really consider an electric as I do not do much in the way of mileage these days . However as I live in a mid terrace house and have no drive the issue is going to getting the car charged . I did do a search before I replaced my car in January but there is just nothing sensible .
