Default Come on...

ElloM8,
Unless your bangin your mash you can't possible think anything of the Mk V an being monikered as an AC for anything north of a few quid.
It's really a rough car worthy of a start up XYZ kit car company. Not AC
I could build a better car out of my 2 car garage. I just couldn't call it an AC. Apparently, at this point, that would appear to be a positive.
My Motto
Good
Fast
Cheap
Pick 2. You don't get everything
Which 2 is in line with AC's motto?

The interior looks significantly different from the Mk Vs on sale in the US last year. Clive Sutton recently advertised a Mk V for £59,950 (expensive!) but hopefully AC have sorted out the quality issues prevalent in the first cars.


The US distributor in now Unique Performance I believe.

Unique has dropped any mention of AC from their website. Perhaps they have smelled the coffee.

Poor John Owen, he is like a guy bailing the Titanic with a bucket.................expected to produce "quality" cars with a new staff and limited resources.

And has anyone else noticed that "fearless leader" has been absent from the public eye for about a year now? Perhaps he is really dead, like Paul McCartney?

Not sure the bucket has a bottom to it...must not post...must not post....

and rumours of Paul McC's depature are greatly exaggerated (mind you, living with That Woman must have been a form of living death - I had the deep misfortune to meet her long before she was notorious/famous. A day in the company of Jo Stalin must have been a laugh a minute in comparision....)

Paul McC and 'that' woman; classic old guy with young bird; sound judgement obscured by delight!! I understand a far nicer lady has now stepped into her shoe..

Far nicer? That ain't difficult!! But the ex will hop off into distance with her millions (which, let face was what all that was ever about - err - allegedly and in my worthless opinon....!)

I could now post some stuff here that would get the site shut down within seconds, so I'll refrain and get back to the fascinating topic of the MkV. errrmmm.......
