That be a Toniq I believe. Covered in the recent PPC I think.

Definitely the Toniq as featured in the totalkitcar mag i have here in my hand. Everything looks the same as the car on the front of the mag.

Its made designed by Hudders Uni?? Being from Cov uni I should find problems with it (friendly competition etc lol) but its really great looking, not overly sure about the nose, but the light set up is great. At the rear lights and front indicators SVA ok, i'd have thought the indicators protruded too far forward if anything.

Its quite nice, not sure about that front grill though but I think it may grow on me. Got a very good review in the magazine above.

At the moment, to me it looks a bit too much like a cross between a locost chav'ed with a body kit or one of the cylon fighters out of the new battlestar galactica.

regarding the lights im afraid they are only avaliable as part of the toniq kit package.shame really as several people have wanted a set and the are definately not locost to produce.
