Not wanting to be a turn coat, but, the Zenos does look interesting.... in a good way.

+1.
Much prettier on paper than the new Crate Aero thingy IMO. I haven't seen either in the flesh to have a look at the detail. Good engine too. When they stick a turbo on it, which I can't believe they won't, it could start ruffling some feathers...

Looks allright to me and their prices include VAT.  Might go and have a look next time I am over that way.

My first EVER car is on the left.  :)
First Atomised 2001.
Atom (165) > Atom 2 (220) > Atom 3 (300) > Atom 3.5 (310) > Atom 4 (350).
There is no cure.

Haha I know what you mean. Reminds me of a car a saw a while ago on 5thgear (tramontana??)
A 700hp 2 seater in the same layout with a full carbon body if my memory serves.
Be interesting to see the next caparo (if it doesn't set on fire  :wize:)

That.  Plus the rear passenger would need to be mighty agile to get in and out.

Looks like blatant copyright / intellectual rights theft.

Assuming it's not Ariel/TMI, let's hope they never get off the ground.

It's a kickstarter scam.  Hopefully as soon as they start their kickstarter campaign on 7th June, Ariel will step in and complain.  Kickstarter should then close it down.  Scam over.

Looks like something someone cobbled together with 4 spare pushbike frames and and old car battery.
It's the engineering that's inspiring - not a competitor but is completely bonkers.....and I thought the driver looker a little like Bruce (on small phone)
Enjoy

I notice the Hadron Xr is still going... seems they want to offer a Nomad alternative too.

I wonder why their kickstarter launch has been delayed so many times?
