Yup in Honeydew, just a few minutes from you.

NICE, I was thinking Caterham 7, which is kind of like a newer model of this car, correct? Either way, I bet that thing is an absolute blast to drive!

It's actually a Birkin 7, but yes just like a caterham (Caterham holds the license for lotus 7 so theoretically it's the original).
It's amazingly fun, ridiculously loud (way above legal), quick and handles like a dream. Believe it or not the 86 is similar in many ways. Both normally aspirated and high revving and both designed purely to go round corners, straight line speed is simply a by product. Either way though lots of fun.
