Just a funny fact: This and the Radical sr8 LM is the first road cars ever to reach a power/weight ratio equaling he power/weight of a superbike. So this car is pretty much like the car worlds gsxr1000, R1, 1198s, fireblade, desmo 16 and so on. I really like this concept, a lot... The concept of achieving a big power/weight ratio is the best concept when trying to build a supercar. But really, the concept of a supercar for the road is quite silly though, you never be able to use all the power.
well no of course you could never use all that performance on the road, but that's not the point! the point is to own something that you know could kick every cars ass around you in first gear, second if the car is a bit fast, and that you can drive to a track, have some majorly good fun, and drive back home, and maybe have a passenger the whole way. it's also about owning something that is just like nothing else and starring at it and knowing it's yours...in short...it's about passion!
I don't actually own a caparo T1 but i've seen one at a exhibition and it broke down every 5 minutes, and just remember your parking the caparo somewhere in your town and someone bumps into it while parking his own car. What now where's the next caparo dealer and just think of how expensive it would be..... for those reasons i came to the conclusion that the caparo t1 is not a car the world needs!
what a knob you are... you can't even spell, use foul language and are obviously a school boy, dream on loser..in 3-4 years time after you leave school you'll be driving a corsa/saxo that mummy and your step daddy bought you.
This car is just a waste of materials!! You really can't use it on the road and it's far to unreliable to be a track car. And it's very expensive....so what is it then? It's just rubbish. That's my opinion on this car.
Your boring! Why does something have to have a use? Use it to drive to work but get stuck every five minutes but you still have those five minutes. On the track it breaks every five minutes but you still the amazing five minutes of almost dying round every corner but making an unbeatable time. Stop rationalising this car, its to expensive to be rational!
yeah, the police will love that - it's as street legal as smoking crack in the middle of an 8 lane express way whilst having a 3-some with a goat and a 12 year old girl, whilst explaining your plans to kill the president to some guy called Mohammed. Street legal? pfft.
Actually it is completely street legal. Just like the Veyron is. All you need to be street legal is appropriate lights, turn signals, brake lights, and a windshield. - Think about the Hayabusa motorcycle. This is about the same...with 4 wheels and more downforce.
The car is legal in the UK. As all countries have different laws it may not be legal in the USA or wherever else you may be from. I'm sure the designers will do what they can to make sure the car is legal for all major markets, would be stupid not to.
What is wrong with you? The photo used is the bloody file photo displayed on the website of Caparo, and as you may have noticed, the angles never change as the camera pans over the photo. So it's not a 'view' of mine, I'm merely stating a fact.
The Caparo T1 is a British mid-engine, rear-wheel drive, two-seater, open-wheel car built by Caparo Vehicle Technologies, (formally know as Freestream), founded by Ben Scott-Geddes and Graham Halstead, former engineers involved in the development of the McLaren F1.[1] The T1 was inspired by Formula One design, and intended as an affordable street legal race car.[1] The T1 is scheduled for production in mid-2007 for a price of GB£180,000 (approx. US$350,000, c.2007).[2]
COUGH COUGH its a british midengine best ur lol........fairplay american r just waste of space they couldnt have a heart to design something so small yet so fast, american v8 5 litre engine max hp is 200-300hp the best ones in europe we wont touch it coz its useless
If you saw it before "Ne1 els" Then wouldnt that mean you designed the car!! And If I remember correctly there wasnt a woman on the design team, there for my friend from oslo knew about it long before your mom did and I also knew about it before your mother did.
note these "rat's ass" comments are directed to the people who were like "Oh I knew about it first"
how bout this - none of you knew about it first - The people who thought up the idea at Caparo knew about it first...so stop acting like you're cool and bragging (or most likely lying) (Besides we ALL technically knew about it b/c OF COURSE they'd eventually make another supercar)
guess what? I also know that eventually going to have jet cars!!!! OMG I'M SOO COOL (note the extreme sarcasm)
mmm, british engineering. not for sissies. why is it all the bad comments come from non-brits? seems like sour grapes. im just saying...
