My Nomad,
With heated windscreen.
Was it Autocar that described it as one of the top ten cars ever?

They’re misguided. Atom should be in that list
Andrew you started this topic, what’s your money no object car?

Actually if money was no issue I would have the Atom 3.5 and 4 plus a Nomad

If I was restricted to just one car, then I must say, the Nomad is a pretty good all-rounder. The Geolander A/T tyres are amazing in the snow!
But an Atom / Nomad is almost always a 2nd car/toy, so that kills that idea...
Now if we could multiple cars, well, one of each of course!

Hmm, no Sadev, reversing camera, bigger seats to fit your fat mate, labels on the switches so you don't have to remember what they're for, a little switch to turn the power down, Euro6 compliant, bigger boot, no supercharger, less helmet lift, bigger fuel tank, heavier, daytime running lights, a clock on the dash. I could go on. Not a lot there to make it more exciting.
I have no doubt, however, that should a 4R appear it will be very good indeed, but for now...
It’ll appear. With a seq box. Not a SADEV but considerably cheaper.
Cheers,

I was told a sequential box would be an option from the start.

Mr P,
Yup you’re spot on there. It’s been going through testing for a wee while now.

Nope, don’t know. Other than it’ll be cheaper than the SADEV box.

I am guessing but it may be something like this which is for the turbo Honda k20c engine and at ~£6500 a great price:
https://shop.quaife.co.uk/honda-civic-t ... al-gearkit almost 3.5x less than the price of the Sadev. It has a choice of cable or paddle (I hope pneumatic) shifter. I think the Quaife is what the Radicals run also.
