I'm really looking forward to this car.
I wonder if its going to have a central driving position like the F1, or would that be stepping on the toes of the legend a bit too much...

Seems relatively cheap for a supercar as well, only £88k

they'r obviously not the actual rear lights they will be integrated into the bodywork, it's just a pre production mule doing the rounds.

right for you people that don't know.
the paintwork is like that to cover up the lines and the style of the car from photographers as they don't want the other manufactures to see ther design before they release it.
And the lights etc are like those off a trailer as they also do not want to give away what the back will look like so just connect them up so the car is road legal.
then they go for a test drive and test it

You also see them wrapping cars hiding any detail/some lines etc. I'm sure google will bring up some examples of test cars.

here are some more, all the camoflauge is to cover up the design of the car so they can just test its chassis

and this is the insignia but as you can see, the lights on this test car are not the same as the ones actually used in production
