| World debut | 2008 British International Motor Show | IFR Aspid |
Another name has just joined the ranks of two-seat lightweight sports cars: the Aspid. Built by Spanish firm IFR Automotive, the Aspid tips the scales at just 700kg, which when combined with the 400bhp on offer from its 2.0-litre supercharged engine allows it to sprint to 62mph in 2.8 seconds, and 100mph in just 5.9. It's pretty damned fast then, but then so it should be at £75,000, that price apparently only a starting point. It's cool though, in a kind of Caterham 7 meets TRON kind of way.
