...Voted but oh my - this car epitomizes the very phrase "ambitious but rubbish".

What's more unbelievable is that (or should I just stick another "Inconceivable" meme here? ) somehow, there's a surviving example of this heap of moving junk.

So crap. So beautiful.

I first heard of this car when I saw it at Goodwood in 2014. (Possibly on the day these photos were taken come to think of it) When I looked it up on the internet when I got back home on that day, I found out how crap it was at real racing. But, I do like the yellow windscreen.
