June issue is packed with hot, small, affordable cars.
Also, they are doing an article on a car next month with;

1.9 litres, 200 bhp, 330 lbs-ft, 0-60 in 6.4 and 35 mpg average.
It'll cruise at 100 mph at just 3000 rpm.

(It's diesel! They're not slow, yassee!).


CATERHAM R400 SUPERLIGHT COMING SOON.

That sounds remarkably similar to my car, with the exception of the top speed; from the factory the astra is limited to 210km/h (131mph). I assume this car has had some work done and isn't a new model coming set up like that as standard? One of Thurlby's I expect?

Autocar had a good review last week, most fun cars you can buy for £15k.
