The Leela 250 S and SS models are designed as street-legal
race cars. In order to achieve
maximum performance, the race-proven
Alfa Romeo engine and suspension
is fitted in a custom steel tube
space frame with carbon fiber
bodywork to keep weight to a minimum.
Each car is built to customer specifications
for the intended use of the car.
All cars come with a fuel cell,
roll bars, 5-point harnesses, and removable steering wheel.
The Alfa
V6 engine can be enlarged up to
3.3 litres, and small displacement
V8 engines can be accommodated.
Pricing varies depending on specifications.
