British Built MMI Avotec Launched
January 11, 2008
I think what the layman is trying to say is that the designers have not really broadened the scope of design with regard to the general trend of the lines and the treatment of the surfaces - so it looks quite kit-car-ish. Though thoroughly aggressive, sporty and dynamic it somehow lacks visual character to set it apart from the crowd. The British market is very near to saturated by light-weight track-day cars so this one needs to be exceptional to crack the nod, especially without a brand-name to back it up. I have no doubt it'll perform to the standards set by the other British greats, but is that enough? The car is a fuzzy fusion of different design elements that don?t quite seem to gel. Why can?t they produce something that breaks away from the Lotus/ Caterham mould???
