“Very, very happy with the car. It looks absolutely amazing.
I always wanted to upgrade the motor to something more powerful and the 383 was a great choice.
Thank you to Riaan and the team at Inhim for doing such a great job. It looks like it just rolled off the production line. Perfect!
This car is an absolute joy to drive – thank you Inhim. Job very well done”.
