The drag-racers in the USA demanded one, they still have a lot of 'weight' in automotive circles

'Fraid not.
It was considered that the independent rear end it was designed to have was 183kg heavier than the solid axle it now has. Ford beleived there was insufficient improvement in handling to compensate for the weight penalty.
It was also a darn sight cheaper - and that carries far more 'weight' :wink:

Sorry but a proper sports car should be RWD with a live beam axle. All this multi-link independant stuff is for ponsy, marshmallow shaped jap-c**p driven by hairdoes too frightened to cope with a car that does sideways.
IMHO
BTW Richard, my mate is selling the TVR if you've got a spare 10k :shock:
