I notice that many people over the last 24hrs have viewed Stuarts first picture of the 'Missile' yet nobody's passed comment. This is a Forum where debate is encouraged, and I for one would hope that its members could provide constructive feedback/comment on any new product or unusual modification posted on here. So here's my two penny worth:- 1. Very striking. I like the concept. 2. I like the nose / front of the car, although I have to keep remembering that this is the electric version and that the wheels and tyres are sized accordingly etc. 3. Not keen on the lights or the wing mirrors especially, I feel both need to be triangular in form to complement the exposed chassis. 4. I like the rear light display, however are the dimensions compliant with IVA ? 5. Again, I assume with the Petrol Powered ST some form of interior tunnel will be supplied as per the current Rocket to enclose the piping / wiring as well make provision for the gear stick / handbrake. I reiterate, I think it will be very thought provoking when on display between a Rocket and Sonic. But just might confuse customers by offering to much choice !

I like the Missile and hope to build one next year if my wife lets me.
But i would change the lights and mirrors.
I am looking to use a petrol engine when i build it.
Overall i like the cross between the rocket and sonic.

Hi all I think it's for the one that wants both rocket and sonic looks, I have not made my mind up if it would be for me I will wait to see it at a show lights and mirrors do need sorting what would it look like with nigel's twin ligths on it? Andy

im dissapointed I was hoping the bodywork would be LESS like the sonic. i think the sonic looks awesome, but this isnt a sonic. I was hoping it would have more aggressive styling and be more unique within the MEV range. BUT, a different colour scheme can change everything. agree on lights and mirrors. triangular for the win will

i think its ACE! i agree with the comments about the lights but other than that i think its sweet. with the petrol engine version, an air scoop for the engine and one on the bonnet for the rad (im thinking impreza or GT4 style) would change the look of the car a bit and look cool (just my opinion) i also like the screen... (stiggy - any chance you can do one like this for the rocket??? please ;D )

Did I hear you mention ST engine? As in Focus ST? as in 2.5 5 cylinder volvo lump ST?
If so then this is awesome (exuse the americaness) but I want I want I want.
As for comments it looks nice, a half way between the Sonic and the Rocket. Don't think the colours do anything for it though to be fair.
When will kit prices (especially the petrol version) be out?
