Just stumbled upon a very interesting site. This guy takes car & motoring enthusiasm one big step further. Props to him for undertaking such a project, almost all by himself as speaks from his documentations of all the work he has put into it, both theoretical and practical.

A long read, but for a tech nut it certainly proved to be interesting!

The car weighs about 2,600 pounds. It has a carbon fiber body and a bonded aluminum chassis. It uses all LED lighting, with a 12-volt electronic system. It uses only rear-wheel drive and might not be ideal for a winter jaunt up to mountains given that chains wouldn't fit in its tire well.

don't ask for the pricetag (you can buy a couple of Lambo's for it)

Great car Jort, and quite an upgrade

Btw, my brother has the "tournier", and I'm driving a V50, which in essence is a focus to (with kind of an upgrade lol)
