That's a great review and good to see some one writing who actually seems to understand what the car is all about.

I was lucky enough to see two of these parked in the Morgan hotel on the recent Laon Historic.
They look even better in the flesh. My understanding is that one of the chaps had a "regular" Plus 8 and traded it for the Speedster.
I love them. love


Here for a good time not a long time!!

Great review. it put a smile on my face just reading it, and I had to go out in the rain and look at my S3 in the garage.
I agree with his Caterham comments. Many Caterhams have now gone to aeroscreens, and I can see why, but I would never get swmbo in the passenger seat if I did. If she ever left me, i think a Speedster would ease the pain (although I doubt she'd leave me enough to buy one!)
