Would like to view a completed Stratos

[BruceB]

Wondering if any members with a completed Stratos would be willing to let me have a look around it, I will be in the UK over the coming weekend and either Friday afternoon/evening or anytime Sunday would suit, I am very close to placing a order for a car with Craig and have looked at a few unbuilt or just started cars but never sat in a completed car and would just like to be sure before placing order.
I will be staying in Ely, Cambridge and would travel anything up to 200 miles to view?

I think you will find that none have been completed yet. Development work still ongoing.

Thanks Chris, I should have said any of the Stratos variants from the various manufacturers, does not need to be a Lister Bell as I am more concerned about interior space/seating positions and all are mostly similar as far a rollcage/interior space goes as far as I can see. I intend to use the car for tarmac rallying and will need to add additional bars to roll cage etc to get a log book and this would help on positioning etc of bars prior to build/painting of spaceframe. I know they will be all slightly different but have already viewed the main types but all have been in early stages of build so to sit in a completed car would help and it does not need to be a car that was built for rallying.

Hi Bruce,

The interior space in a Stratos is critical, as you've already guessed.

The differences between a Hawk and other replicas in the interior space and seating positions is not slight (in Stratos interior space terms).
The LB STR has a horizontal floor in the seat mounting area, and the interior space is greater. Not by a lot, but a significant amount.
Small differences between the interior space of each Stratos replica will add up to a lot.
Sitting in a Hawk will not give you a good idea of the interior space of an LB STR.

Hi Bruce,

Craig had his green car on display at the show, it has been trimmed and he has the first set of seats. So it may be worth giving him a call. At a guess I'd say you would be about 80 miles away.

Could do with wearing a helmet when you try one too. Makes a massive difference to headroom / roll cage / interference
it does get tight in there if you are over 5'9" or 10" with helmet on. Seat angle also a factor

Ps if you come by Nottingham to go see LB you are welcome to see if you fit my Hawk.
