Its not that awesome, they were all designed by the same man with a piece of tracing paper.
Are cars such as the Phantom Vortex proper production cars that have to pass all the safety and emissions rules or are just "kits" that the company builds to order and then SVAs for you?
Any pics of a Virago Coupe???
I googled it and an S Class Coupe appeared.

So... that would be exactly identical to the picture of the Phantom Vortex that Matra posted...
You could have tried the UCP "search" function:

[url]www.virago-cars.co.uk[/url] would be the "home" site, but it has crap pictures.
I was gonna say Tommy Kaira ZZS. But whatever.
[QUOTE=Coventrysucks]Oh No it isn't!
It was in fact a Virago coupe, which just happens to look exactly identical to the Phantom.[/QUOTE]
Sorry to revive an old thread, but just for complete-ness. The Phantom and the Virago are the same car...
Well, yes, but at the same time no.
From Virago's website:
"An existing custom-build vehicle's design rights were procured..."
I.e. Phantom didn't have the funds ao didn't build their 177bhp Honda-powered kit car version, Virago bought the car and still don't have the funds to build their factory-built 230/280bhp Ford-powered version.
The one I saw was a Virago, not a Phantom, I know that from where it was.
Yes. If you are interested anymore in it i know a man who is re-building a crash damaged one.
