New out this year I believe - racing last week at The pod... Anyone know the car/owner...
Wonder how much is actually Marina - I reckon panels only left and a tubeframe chassis...

Very cool! But I bet not much will fit in the back :| And if you did get anything in there it will very quickly come out again and bounce down the road I expect
I think it is not just plans of 'fastest UK Marina' which look difficult now but many other cars looking at that monster 8)
