The newest home-built contraption is the SDR Sports Cars WR3 V-Storm. Like a number of other British cars most famously represented by the Ariel Atom, the V-Storm is basically scaffolding with seats and an engine.<\/p>\n<p>The previous model was powered by the V-twin from an Aprilia RSV1000. The latest model gets its scoot from a Subaru Impreza engine with more than 300 horsepower, good for a run from 0-to-60 of about three seconds. The &#8220;3&#8221; in the WR3 moniker refers to the seating: a McLaren F1 style center position for the driver and two wingmen behind. Kits start at &pound;3,995 ($6,534 U.S.), or &pound;19,995 ($32,700 U.S.), plus VAT and fripperies, for a turn-key car.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2010\/01\/20\/sdr-sports-cars-debuts-v-storm-just-think-of-it-as-an-ariel-ato\/#continued\">Follow the jump<\/a> to watch it in action, or check out the gallery of photos below for some less racy views.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"postgallery\">\n<p><strong>Gallery: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/sdr-sports-cars-wr3-v-storm\/low\/\">SDR Sports Cars WR3 V-Storm<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/sdr-sports-cars-wr3-v-storm\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/01\/01sdrwr3scooby_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/sdr-sports-cars-wr3-v-storm\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/01\/02sdrwr3scooby_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>\n[Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sdrsportscars.co.uk\/home.html\">SDR Sports Cars<\/a>]<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2010\/01\/20\/sdr-sports-cars-debuts-v-storm-just-think-of-it-as-an-ariel-ato\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Continue reading <em>SDR Sports Cars debuts V-Storm.
