The United Arab Emirates isn"t recognised for its car industry. Yes, it"s incredibly well-versed in consuming high-end cars, but its own homebrew hypercars creations have been somewhat ambitious.Remember the Middle East"s first and only supercar? The W Motors" Lykan Hypersport? It was a four-wheeled, 2million, 242mph supposition that lacked things like definitive facts. Well, now Anthony Jannarelly the designer of that very car has returned with a new retrotastic and far more affordable (and believable) offering, the Jannarelly Design-1.It"s a back-to-basics rear-wheel-drive sports car inspired by one of the most beautiful cars of all time, the 1957 Ferrari Testarossa.Unlike the Ferrari, it"s a tubular framed chassis cloaked in aluminium panels with more than a nod to the famous pontoon Prancing Horse, fitted with a V6 knicked from a Nissan 370Z. That lump under the bonnet is good for 305bhp, all fed through a six-speed manual transmission and to the road via a drift-happy limited-slip differential.
