Really impressed with this machine to the extent that I have ordered one (January 2018). To secure the order a deposit is requested and I am now in the queue.

The demand means I have to wait for a year before I can specify the vehicle. Two items are a must – Supercharger, which raises bhp up from 235 to 300bhp and hi-spec dampers, either Bilsteins or Ohlins. The 235 bhp version is supposed to accelerate to 60 in 3.4 secs, means the supercharged version should be lively.

The rest is personal choice and clearly dependent on what you Ain to do with the vehicle.

There is a fantastic VLOG on Youtube where MUDNOMAD telling his story of ownership. Ariels website is at: http://www.arielmotor.co.uk
