I wouldn't have shown any product of mine in such unfinished condition. The level of fit and finish even at that early stage would not have persuaded me to open my wallet for a deposit. Too much to be left to the imagination.

Three things to add that I gleaned from the Notar representative at the stand. The GRP body is claimed to be taken from the original Autodelta moulds; the car will have a 155 engine; and the rear suspension will be fully independent.

Those wheels were truly horrific and I fail to see why they couldn't have at least borrowed a set of real/repro ones for the show.

Just my opinion, but at 80K Euro it seems almost too cheap (the Notar guy admitted that "others in Italy" have made TZ2's and realised about 250K Euro for them), and makes me wonder what short cuts have been taken with tooling and final trim.
