Can anyone identify this car please - I snapped it at a recent car show in Torquay, UK.

 

K1 Attack, it is a kit car.

 

That's the K1-Attack, though it's sold as a few other things around the globe..

 

Hi guys,

It reminds me ofthe slovenian Tushek Renovatio T500 that we can see here:

Is it the same car??

 

Yes it is, it's sold in different places as different cars. It's a kit plus is also re-licensed to other companies.

 

Has anyone ever driven one? I've seen a blue one around here but never met the owner. Interested to know how they perform

 

Hello Tim,

It has all moved on a bit from the early days. Yes the styling of the K1 attack inspired some of the styling on the Tushek 500 - the one that Autocar tested a few years ago - but different chassis, engine, gearbox, body, interior etc. The new Tushek is ground up and developed with some very serious names in the industry.

The times that the 600 is putting in around Red Bull Ring, where development work is generally done, are astounding.

Not sure where Ecurie is now based? - The last time I met you was at a drinks do in, I think, Dover Street about 6 years ago. I think you were next to CCC before that from memory.
