:-(

No sign on the UK Alfa site of it ever being anything more than a show car, that I could find anyway.

Put one of [link|http://www.grouplotus.com/car/car_product.php?id=2&mid=11|these] on your wish list. It's a one-off too, but you'd be supporting your fellow countrymen. :-) Since it's custom, you might be able to get them to move the seat back a foot or so so you would fit.

Cheers,
Scott.

New Ok.
I probably like the idea of supporting [link|http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/A827598|Colin Chapman]'s spirit more than any real desire for that particular car.

There's a lot to be said for [link|http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Colin_Chapman|simplify and add lightness] when it comes to sports cars. The Elise and other cars do that. The [link|http://www.chevrolet.com/corvette/|Corvette Z06] and the [link|http://z.iwethey.org/forums/render/content/show?contentid=219434|Exelero] don't.

Cheers,
Scott.

New Also, Lotus == Vauxhall.
Noble == Noble (it's about six blokes in a shed in Leicestershire, who mysteriously turn out these fabulous sports cars)
