General Comments

I have owned a gt6 mkIII for a little over two months now and it is a joy to drive. So far I've only had issues with a carburettor float which was easy to sort.
The driving experience is a lot of fun - you are so low to the ground an arm out the window can touch the tarmac. This gocartesque feel makes everything seem twice as fast. In reality though this is not a rocket car and the best acceleration you get is between 30 and 50mph. A little front heavy on the turns which makes it all the more fun/frightening.
The car looks fantastic but it really is tiny. Parked against a modern hatchback it is dwarfed. I'm only 5'7" so doesn't bother me but I think its probably not wise if you're a tall man or woman.
Front up bonnet release and plentiful parts new and reconditioned make the gt6 an easy and (relatively) cheap car to maintain. Just don't buy a total rustbucket.
