They don't do anything for me at all. They look like a big MGA.

Do like the GW's myself but when was the last time you saw one on the road?
About 6 months ago, in the fast lane of the M1 near Northampton - the pilot was NOT hanging about. Was doing at least a ton. It was on it's way to a classic car event of some sort as there were a few ot5her classics heading South.

The bottom shot is lovely, shot ultra wide & with a bit of pp tonemapping. A very nice car indeed but for the money I also would rather have the Gullwing Merc 8)

Thinking about it, that might belong to Paul Michaels who owns Hexagon - he's got a few classics and uses them regularly.

I have seen one hidden away in a workshop, Hidden under a cover with just the front corner poking out. Looked really quite scary!

Probably the best exmple there is too....
