OOoopps.. I remember these..yes I am a hundred years old...From what I remember this was produced out of a desire to bring the EUROPA into the modern age. Its was about 1973-76 that this was proposed (before the Esprit) from a small company outside of Bristol (Crinklewood?). They would convert on command using a donor Europa. Nearly went for it as I was in love with the Europa....The company had produced a lovely 3 page open colour broshure...Think pricing was well under

I've seen that one pictured before, albeit slightly more complete and with Compomotive split rims and GTurbo graphics all round. The GTurbo bodykit does very little for it IMHO, but then many people would probably say the William Towns reworking of the original 60s design is only marginal now the Europa seems to have enjoyed renewed interest.

There looks to be a big hint of Masserati in the back of that car.

Always do sober what you said you'd do drunk - that will teach us to keep mouth shut!

Yep it shares the Merak rear flying buttress, I also think the Mercedes C-111 was a big influence;
