Depends on the run but i say it would easily get over one

don't think it would be much fun on crap Uk roads and I agree with Robin, more than likely end up in a hedge

apparently Jason Plato was testing one for Fifth Gear and it caught fire - not a good advert for your new product !!!

hmmm... now if I remember the EVO article correctly, there was 2 available for testing and I'm sure 1 wouldn't start while the other broke down. (or something like that)

So, not only does it not go... but when it does you get an over ambitious heating system for the cabin...

Sounds like it would be fun ownership...

Buy a S/C Honda'd S1 Exige for less than the tax of the Caparo and get the same experience for much less

IIRC it broke a wishbone or upright during the EVO press day test...
