Re: Atom 4 vs 3.5 245 vs 3.5 SC Advice Please
having owned both a 3 and 2 x 4's with different spec, the 4 is a much better car in nearly every area. If your budget can stretch to a 4 then get one. Thinks to go for are definitely the Ap brakes, the TC is brilliant and works really well, if the car has standard brakes then it will cost a few tho...

Re: K20 vs K24
Is the turbo version _that_ good? I've not bought the car yet so getting a 4 over a 3.5 is an option. I'd heard that although the turbo is really good, the SC 3.5 was actually the better driving experience? The Atom 4 is a massive step up on the 3.5. Engine, chassis massive improvement over the 3.5...

Re: K20 vs K24
My Understanding is:- K20 was the better engine for the Atom. The K24 was for the nomad. They run out of the K20's so as a stop gap they installed the K24's in a few Atoms while they were waiting for the Atom 4 to be ready. K20 is better suited to the Atom and the K24 is better suited to the Nomad. ...

Re: Here up North
There are a lot of Ariel Owners up North. Most of them are on Whatsapp and also on Facebook which is used more than the Forum. Go onto the Ariel Club Facebook page.

Re: Atom 4R HP limitations?
The 4R will be a lot quicker than the old V8 around a track. The chassis is far better and handling is on another level. You will have no chance on modifying the 4R as ECU is locked and also cannot be changed due to dash and gearbox setup.

Re: Calling Atom Owners!
After over 11 years of owning Atoms (On my 3rd one now) I can very happily say no they never loose there excitement on the road. The Atom 4 is incredibly civilised on the road if you want it to be. I always book at least an 10 hour drive each year. Get yourself one, you will love it both on the road...

Re: Atom (and Nomad) tech specs required
I would suggest the only place for that would be the Ariel Factory. Suggest you give them a call

Re: Atom 4 side panels
Worth every penny. Had them on all 3 of my atoms. Only takes 10 mins to take them off, so I tend to use them in the winter or if weather is not great and then take them off it is is going to be really hot. Well worth it but dont expect they stay mint for long as they do scratch very easily

Re: Helmet and gloves
Depends on what you are going to use the car for. If just for road driving then you can get away with nearly anything with closed face. If you are planning on doing track days then suggest you go for a proper motorsport helmet with a hans device attachment.

Re: What do people think of this?...
I would speak to the factory and see what they say. It will need the lights put back on.

Re: Help needed, and looking for a A4
Enjoy owning an Atom in the IOM. Doesn't it rain there all the time. Much better weather in Jersey thankfully, only issue is the speed limits. PM me your Mobile no and I will ask to get you added to the Whatsapp Group

Re: Help needed, and looking for a A4
Now on my 2nd Atom 4, what I will say is overheating issue is sorted so don't worry about that. There are a few decent ones for sale but always check with the factory regarding the history. It will all depend on your budget, Ohlims are worth it, obviously the 350bhp is a must, Sequential is superb, ...
