I have just been looking and found this, it may be a repost but i was shocked. I had heard things about this car but i didnt think they were true. It actually has a 4.0 ltr engine!!!

Love the rust on the rear arches...
Mmmmmmmm drugs are bad K.....
Much to the fact UV are about 15 levels below Regal, who are monkies as well.
I would go to UV if I had a carrot up my ass, a speach problem (innit bruv), and a cupboard full of Burberry.
Yo.

Really?
I would be glad to hear it, but people always remember the bad, not the good.
Actually, i've jsut read a post about their new 361bhp VXR, so hopefully they are turning a corner. I'll have to wait and see.
I actually hope they can prove me wrong. I don't like dodger dealers.

Piece of dogshit, and looks to me like the engine hasn't even been mounted.

It looks a complete mess!!
I think you are right and the engine has not even been mounted!
I liked the idea of a corsa on 20s, but the back just looked wrong!

Whats the idea with the centre mounted seat?
Still needs the steering and pedals sorted apparantly but where the hell are you going to put them when there is a great big bulkhead covering the gearbox in the centre of the car.
Looks like a horrible mess tbh

The higher the weight, the higher the center of gravity, the better it will handle???
The UV way

I love this bit.......
"I am not including, headlights, seats, b
brakes, wheels that you may see in any of the pictures. You are buying the shell, the engine and the idea!"
So your basically getting a cut and ripped apart shell, and an engine worth about £500-£1000?????
Hmmmmm Got to love it. Some mug will buy it im sure 
Now wheres my Twin Rolls Royce Merlin powered Saxo gone?

Longitudinally mounted 4 litre engine and no transmission tunnel 
Nice.
I suppose the only bonus is that it's an all alloy engine, so it probably only weighs as much as an LET.
Edit - looked again, spotted the tunnel
