STIMULATOR (GB) 1989 to date
Stimulator Cars, Paignton, Devon

Les Hindley built the Lotus 7-inspired Stimulator to order according to customer specification. All cars had a strong spaceframe chassis reputedly capable of handling power outputs up to 400bhp. Engine options included Rover V8, Alfa Romeo and small block V8. Overall dimensions were much grander than most Seven style cars and a distinguishing feature was the exposed suspension radius arms.
