The Sadev experience......

Just when I thought it couldn’t get anymore bonkers!!

Alan, has anyone ever told you, you have the most amazing gearbox!

What a blast, the gear change is ridiculously quick. Mine felt sedate driving home Image

I just have to weigh up if I should ‘invest’ in one or not.

Thanks Al, until next time.....

I think Mr P's wagon might be the most spec'd up 3.5 Atom ever made.

I remember seeing it in build & wondering what it was missing.....answer not a lot. If anything.

Cheers,

Best ask him, I guess..

It even had the jazzy wishbones, IIRC.

But unpainted Alcons #fail :)

Ask the factory. 150 squids a corner, from memory.

Oh, I wouldn’t have thought of asking the factory. That’s quite reasonable, compared to the other quote I had.

As a retro fit you’d have to really want one. Budget £35K+

I have had a quote from Ariel already

I’m convincing myself that it’s an investment, and when I come to sell I will get my money back..... I think it’s called ‘man maths’
