Is it best to name real cars as competition, or just imply?

Yep, I'm loving the Giulietta, she's not perfect but she's a lot of fun and brings a smile to my face every day. Not sure how much 147 is carried over into them though. 147s are still good looking cars after 15 years imo.

heh maffc, if you're a fan of the British auto industry, how plausible is my back story?

Hi Utopian, Yeah I like your companies backstory, seems just as plausible as any other and nicely sidesteps the issues of the 60s & 70s the real industry had.

I ought to get round to finishing and publishing my companies history, we both had a similar idea about redundant WWII aircraft factories - lol
