The car (I would say a real one) was exhibited at the Legend Boucles de Spa this weekend. I was surprised by the looks of it. Seemed rather big but very aggressive with some unique looking details. I really like it.

Looks really good, I'm positively surprized!

At the early stages of the project Vodafone were in discussions. Since Sordo signed Santander has been mentioned. But we'll see.

Good to see that some realise it's a serious project with serious backing. It can only get better.

I drove in paralell lane in a que and slowely passed a Countryman driving after a 207. Quite some size difference btw those two, at least in civil version. So it looks quite big and bulky to me. But prodrive, pls prove me wrong, that it is just the correct size !
