Definitely making the trip to Kirkistown the day you're bringing this.

What a car. Fair play. (y)

I was lucky enough to drive one of these at a track day at Nutts Corner.
Loved every minute of it, these things are seriously quick!
Best of luck with it and health to enjoy.:cool:

There's next to no panels on the thing to clean but I'm sure you'd just spend your time just staring at it, drooling, or worse...

Awesome is an over used word these days but I think it suits this perfectly. Class. :cool:

100% awesome @evo98 I absolutely love driving these things. You are quite correct, nothing else transmits the feeling of speed just the way these do and the sc whine is just epic.

The most fun money can buy IMO, massive well done (y)

Yesterday i had a wee nosey round it an took a few pictures of it. This car near has all the extras from the factory an was close on £50k from new when you tally everything up. I could have bought the newer atom 3 but couldnt have afforded one that was supercharged (extra 5 grand) carbon front and rear wings (almost another 5 grand) alcon fromt and rear brakes ( extra 4.5 grand) them 3 things to me were the most important things and after driving this im so glad i bought it.

Only differences from the 2 an 3 is lower seating position, side bars welded in different direction which gives bit more elbow room. Better engine mounts in the 3 for less vibration. Porsche rear roller bearings in the 3 which mine has been upgraded to an ive a receipt here for £4265 which this was part off.

Started of yesterday by removing the surround from the air intake as i could see loads of poor insects that were unfortunate enough to be sucked in here :grinning:
