Bought my donor 24V engine and GTA 6 speed gearbox already for my Stratos 1 recreation already, putting AHM throttle bodies and OMEX ECU on it, looing for 310BHP and 790KG.

People on the Stratos forum are very much unimpressed with the new one - has about as much in common as a beetle/new beetle apart from the engine is in the same place.

Apparently owning a stratos is all about handles coming off in your hand and breaking down regularly
