I am not sure Ricky Gauld agrees with that. But again, I don't know his views on Davrians

For the neophyte, is this correct or just a load of ...

In 1967, the design had settled to a 2-seat glass fibre monocoque coupé, officially called the Davrian Demon or Davrian Imp and series production started with a company being formed called Davrian Developments. The cars were sold in kit form. A variety of power units were offered including Mini (for mid-mounting),[6] Type 1 (for rear-mounting),[7] and Ford Fiesta. The car weighed in at 4 cwt (448 lb (203 kg)).[8]

Okay I'll take the above as a typo and make it 14 cwt!

To those that know, thanks for the info!
