Healy Enigma?

[face]

I just saw that KGF are dealers for the 'Healy Enigma'.

 

A new one on me.

 

It's an MX5 and this one is just shy of £26K.

 

[Supernaut]

£26?

 

Bargain!

[artdjones]

The enigma is why anyone would spend so much on something so ugly

[face]

£26?

 

Bargain!

 

Fuck and thanks.

[Tamworthbay]

It looks like the ugly bastard love child of a bini and a Audi TT.

[Anglevan]

Saw this at the nec classic car show. Based on an mx5 from memory. Looked well done but then you expect that of a show car? Not my cup of tea but plenty of people were having a good ol' nosey at it.

[HMC]

Very authentic apparently, they even remount the exhaust system so it grounds out and has no rustproofing.

[John F]

It looks like a flat, stretched BINI.

[mercrocker]

I think its pronounced "Ugleay Pig-ma".   Seriously, who would squaff 26K on this?  

 

I know its de rigeur on here to trot out how many £250 shiters that adds up to but you could have a real MX5, decent Frogeye and a £5K daily for this joke.   None of which, incidentally, would have to be wearing such fucking stupid wheels.

[Dick Cheeseburger]

Let's try and not be Meldrew about this. The facts:

 

1. It's better built than the original.

2. It's going to be ultra reliable, comfortable, and easy to source mechanical parts for because MX5.

3. It's ideal for blowing out the remaining hair from a receding hair-line.

4. It stands out from the mainstream shizz.

 

Would I ever spend £26k on one?

[John F]

I have a suspicion that it won't be comfortable on those wheels.

 

But what is really going to sell these cars more than anything else is the styling...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

... NOT

[spartacus]

It's got it's place... just not in any of our fleets, not until it's 1/100th the price.

And those wheels are shit.

 

I'm having to edit this, I've just seen the pictures above, I'm not sure anyone on here is short sighted enough to buy one.

[Mr_Bo11ox]

Absolutely appalling

[strangeangel]

2. It's going to be ultra reliable, comfortable, and easy to source mechanical parts for because MX5.

 

 

Shame they didn't use the body from an MX5 too, 'cos that looks rank.

[Guest Hooli]

That is proof that retro = shit & you should just buy the damn old car you actually like.

[Felly Magic]

That is hideous, you could get a decent real Healey for that money too

[billyboy406v6]

Hope there is no raffle plans !

[KruJoe]

 

Micra lights? LOLz.

[John F]

The ones in the red one are even grimmer. WTF were they thinking?

[billyboy406v6]

Potential to rename " ENEMA"

[Twiggy]

I have a suspicion that it won't be comfortable on those wheels.

 

But what is really going to sell these cars more than anything else is the styling..

 

 

 

Styling. . . ? ? ? What "styling". . . ? ? ?

[cros]

Fork hunts.

[DavidB]

Haha

[fordperv]

Gopping

[eddyramrod]

It's overpriced, fuck-no-please-ugly and on stupid wheels. 

 

 

Of course it'll sell.  It'll sell in vast numbers, they'll have to build three extra factories to keep up with demand.  It's exactly what the people who buy new cars want.

[Dick Cheeseburger]

 

Micra lights? LOLz.

Good lord, looks like they are as well. It almost warrant a 'Styling by Micra' sticker.

 

 

[The Reverend Bluejeans]

Hadaway and shite.

[Faker]

The headlights are from the bini mini! It's a kit car. Can be bought for £6.5k!
