Europeans really deserves appreciation, especially the Brits. Once again they have created a great car model that set car aficionados in big surprise. This is the new Breckland Beira – a new soft-top 2-seater sportscar that unexpectedly existed.
It uses the General Motors Kappa platform as the foundation for its design. This said platform is also currently used by the Pontiac Solstice, Saturn Sky and Opel Gt. While the engine performance exhibits identically with the Chevrolet Corvettes. Corvette uses its old LS2, 6-litre V8 engine that produces just less than 400 bhp. The 0-60mph time is said to be sub 5-seconds and the top speed lies at 155mph.
Mark Easten, Engineering Director for Breckland Beira says that “The Kappa platform offers a highly competent chassis, which has been subject to intensive crash and safety tests, and is readily available.
Breckland’s overall director Mike Rawlings states that the cars purpose was to showcase great design and engine potential as well as to construct a thrilling driver’s car with brilliant handling dynamics and marvelous performance.
The top attribute for this new model was the engine that can either use a Liquefied Petroleum Gas as well as petrol. With this feature it can definitely reduce the toxic emissions brought by pure petroleum fueled engines.
The unique and sporty exterior styling displays classic design familiarized on British exhibition areas. Although, older components such as heavy steel panels have been replaced with lightweight components to increase aerodynamics. On its cabin it doesn’t have much sophistication but it has all the standard features that a sportscar must have.
The Breckland Beira will go on sale this November with an expected retail price of £55,000 and it will make its debut at the London Motorexpo.
