The first car, currently codenamed AMS 1, is due to be unveiled at the Newark Car show in June. It will utilize the running gear of the Subaru Impreza (6 times winner of the World Rally Championship) and will be a four wheel drive, 260 brake horsepower two seater sports car.

Talking about the new car, Neil said: “We wanted to design an alternative to the traditional production mainstays, such as the Mazda MX5 and Audi TT. Offering a Subaru based vehicle is currently a unique proposition in the kit car market, which is still dominated by minimalist sports cars like the Caterham 7, and replicas of traditional performance icons such as the AC Cobra.

“Instead of this, we will be offering a contemporary design with turbo charged four wheel drive underpinnings, giving buyers the chance to get something truly different. It will appeal not only to those who wish to build their own, but also to people who want something different than the mass produced sports cars.”

Customers will be able to purchase a kit of parts which, when combined with an Impreza donor vehicle (which can also be sourced by Adrenaline), will allow them to build their own car. Alternatively, the company will build ready to drive fully built cars to the precise specification of a customer - including an option of up to 350 horsepower. The cars will sell either as a complete turn-key vehicle starting at £19,000 or as a comprehensive kit of parts for the homebuilder from £9,000.

Neil continued: “We can supply a fully trimmed vehicle complete with hood or hard top that’s designed as a viable everyday transport. A car like that will be based on a 260 horsepower donor vehicle ensuring that performance will be blistering whilst still offering practicality. Alternatively we can also supply a fully stripped out lightweight vehicle designed for occasional road use as a second car, and to appeal to the rapidly growing track day and race market.”

Performance of the entry level model: 0-62mph under 4 seconds, 260 bhp, 900kgs.

Top specification: 350 bhp, 850kgs.
