I belive i seen one of theese on the motor way the other day, i think.

It had Apollo S wrote on the back and the number plate was Apollo S to, along those lines some where anyway.

I did take pictures but didnt actually save on my phone (grrr) but it looked mean. :)

Looking at Wiki prices start at £190k!

The Apollo is a 1100kg, street-legal race car with up to 650hp and 627 lb/ft of torque, designed to take on the Porsche 911 GT3, it is a mid engined, rear wheel drive two seater constructed on a tubular Chromoly frame, with fiberglass or optional carbon fiber body panels. An Audi 4.2L V8 engine is joined to a six-speed sequential gearbox with Formula 1 influences. Estimated top speed is 360 km/h (224mph) with 0-100km/h (0–62 mph) reached in 3.0 seconds, making it the 9th best accelerating production car in the world, behind the Ariel Atom.

Sounds impressive. And looked impressive.

Wish my camera worked :( :(

A car dealer in Duffield in Derbyshire is selling a few of these. Thing they are going for £300,000 last time i checked.

Is that really the interior though?:( Looks to have the same quality (if not less!) than as the MG SV. I totally agree with basic interior to reduce weight in 20-50K cars (Elise, VXR) - but seriously 190K? :( Looks very impressive and nice from the outside though.

To me the Interier looks to have Alcantara, carbon fibre and Brushed aluminium. I know one thing Alcantara isnt cheap and i think it suits the car a lot. Light weight and still looks nice i reckon.
 
They look mean.

Top Gear should get one on show. See how it does around the track for a £300k car.
