The Atom Commith

I didnt know where to post this but I guess Atoms are pretty super haha. My friends run an exotic car rental business and recently they picked up a new car for the fleet. They also run a detailing business which had its open house two days ago. They weren't sure if the car would be there in time but luckily it was...it actually arrived at about 7pm the night before. I was there to document its arrival. Here is the story of the arrival of their ARIEL ATOM!

After waiting around for several hours, J gets the call and we all head outside. A few minutes later, the transport truck rounds the corner.


The drivers


While they were unloading the stuff blocking in the Atom, we took a look at the rest of the cargo


FERRARI 250 Lusso


DB9


$18,000 Golf Cart....




Our first glimpse


Moving pimp golf cart #2 (it had a bumpin' system and everything hahaha)


Almost ready


Gentlemen, figure out how to start your engines....(it uses RFID not a key)


"maybe I have to put my seat belt on?"


...how many guys does it take to start an Atom?


6 actually because the battery was dead and we had to push start it


Now the real test, will it make it inside?


It made it! J was so excited he broke the steering wheel off!


This thing is basically brand new, only 47 miles






And finally Critter getting it ready for the open house the following day.



Well guys, I hope you liked the little write up. You can definitely expect a shoot of this car sometime soon (when it warms up) so stay tuned. I will be going along on their Dream Drive April 11th so expect some photos from that as well.

I couldn't help but notice that there's actually a Volvo in that transport. The atom looks killer! I would love to test-drive one but I'm not sure I would like to own one.

There seemed to be a 356 in the carrier that you didn't even mention?
