Thanks for the link, Perry. The background story makes the car even more sympathetic and interesting. When it comes to production numbers, the word "waiting list" takes on yet another new meaning. There would have to be a waiting list of friends and acquaintances.

I'd be surprised at any car that doesn't have a waiting list - my Mrs has just ordered a company car. Due to her lowly paygrade it's a bog standard VW Golf without any frills or upgrades allowed. Delivery date is 28/04/23!

Another niche car .... seems to be a custom based on the Aston Martin chassis .... not likely to make much of a dent in the mass market as they're only making ten of them

Rather unusually for a small British sports car company, Wells are still going strong. It's fair to say that the development of the Vertige has taken far longer than anticipated but production is now under way.
These are all the cars currently on the road with three more in various stages of assembly at the factory.

Power is currently provided by the 2.0 Ford Duratec (with an 'R' Spec option of 250bhp) but after the current batch of 10 cars they are switching to the 2.5L Duratec. Current owners report that the cars handle beautifully and are easy to live with. It's a similar size to a Lotus Elise but more practical with decent luggage space as well as being easier to get in and out of!

Watch out for a full Autocar road test in the new year.

Yes, they have pretty much had to double the price they launched at in order to make some money moving forwards. At the same time they're taking it upmarket by improving the spec and fit/finish.

It is a wonderfully focused project and my hat is raised to them for their execution of it.

A bit like the rebirthed TVR, optimistic pricing on release in this modern world but when pegged against true competition still remaining real value. I keep looking at Exige's and feeling an itch.

It does make me look at the Alpine as pretty amazing value and sadly under appriciated. But that problem will go away shortly as they become another farcical loss to the age of BEV. Nothing wrong with going BEV but trying to araldite an Alpine badge onto a tweaked R5? Really. Nicole is probably consulting her lawyers about a divorce as we speak.


Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.
