The nearest was the RA Classic which has a similar feel by more raw. The P1 feels like a well refined RA.

If I had driven a better Scoob I would say so but I haven't driven one that is as much fun and positive around the twisties.

I'm sure you will enjoy one if you test drove it.
Thanks clive. I want something that is totally different from my old hawk as I have been there and done that now and I think a late blob will be to close to that, to the point that I would always be comparing them. A P1 really would be like having a totally different car. Shall I tell the Mrs tonight or after the bank holiday weekend
