its interesting how people on here say wheels bigger than 13-14" ruins handling, yet MK's demo car has much bigger wheels 19"s or something?

oh yeah, i know all that, it just seems funny.
adverts for cars are generally to make you think, 'wow i could look that cool driving that' but in reality...

MKs and the like will generally be bought by people who know a lot about cars, and are looking for the best handling and stuff.

you know what i mean...

Whereas all of these cars on the Caterham website have 13" wheels.

We all know 17" alloys as fitted to the new demo/show car are not the best option for great handling,but this car was built as a show car to be displayed at Doncaster custom car show,where the above photograph was taken,along side this car were MK's custom trikes,at that particular show your aiming at a different market,see picture below,to your usual kitcar and sports car shows,its well known as a bit of a Chav show.
