Sorry, my english isn't as good, does 'gone into receivership' mean
something like Beans will stop total production ? :-{

Must be the "Scimitar Sabre", the follower of the SS1 (if SST, SS2
and Target not counted) which is sold very badly. The SS1 own bodywork
has gone and some Miata (uargh) engeneers/designers seem to have tried
some face-lifting.
The GT's nowaday are build as 'Middlebridge Scimitar' by Robin Rew and
look realy perfect. Real Scimitars with far better interieur (leather & Co).
Aehm, and yes, the are a 'bit' more expensive than original Scimi GTs were.
Gruss
Chris
