Is that Jay Kay's?
He pulled up beside me sometime ago as I was in the middle lane of the M40 and said I've got one of those pointing at my 911 before disappearing down the road.
I recognised him and was telling Mike about it. I thought as it was green it was a Pagani or some other exotic but Mike suggested it might a a Ferrari which indeed it was.

Worried that I might not get my phone back. We left seconds later

My parents loaned their MG YA to a local couple as their wedding car yesterday.
They live in Brittany, the groom is a camionneur.
This offered a not oft seen photo opportunity for a Y type!

Who can describe what this drive train is?

Some bizarre CVT? Can’t quite make out how it works!

CVT yes, but the engine?

Other than being a V8 I was stumped.
But I must admit to having googled it… guess it has a very narrow powerband hence the cvt makes the most of it?
Still makes the complexity of your Lola install look like child’s play!

The man who engineered it is 75 and it is a v8 two stroke from a race boat.
Big thread on a hillclimb forum of the engine install.
I think simple is best!

It was really nice.
Love the narrow body design, so much nicer than all the bulges imho.
