Lightning spotted M25

[marrow]

Nothing to do with the discharge of atmospheric electric... I drove past what looked like a baby Veyron yesterday on the M25. Has anyone else seen one of these quirky sports cars?

Looked similar to the one seen on their website... http://www.lightningcarcompany.com/

The company did a promotion where I work a while ago. They had two parked at the front of the building. They do look stunning and the brakes look weird, but actually they're individual electric motors behind each wheel. They're 700bhp fast!!!

How much are they? And where are they built?

The one I spotted was a converable on an 03-plate. It was certainly an unusual shape, but had a hint of kit car about it.

This is the one that was being promoted:

They're not cheap though, around £150k if I remember.

You're going to have to trust me on this one, the 03 convertable I saw did look like a veyron from the rear (and rear only).
