Meanwhile structural components for this performance buggy are made by the same firm supplying Aston Martin and Jaguar. With its top speed of 56km/h, the buggy can hardly match the Aston Martin, Jaguar or Porsche models for performance although it is said to offer similar levels of build quality and comfort at least. It can also be specified in road legal format if required.
