That spoiler isn't stock is it? It just doesn't match the car. Other than that, WoW!

Only the Bodies are made in South Africa, the rest of the car is built/assembled in Leicestershire, UK. It's a GRP/Composite body over a tube frame/chassis. Motor is Ford Mondeo/Contour V6, either 2.5ltr or 3ltr in later models with twin turbo's bolted on for good measure.

They are very nice cars and I covert them !! Have sat in some at car shows, that's about as close as I'm gonna get !!

And yes, the rear spoiler is stock, although you can delete it with no extra cost !!

I have the TopGear episode where they drove the M12. They seemed to focus a lot on the turbos.

That's crazy. I just saw one of those yesterday and didn't know what it was. I figured it was a kit car. That's definitely it though, except the one I saw was grey and going the opposite direction. (Port Angeles, Washington.)
