We are currently readying our second issue for distribution. Interestingly our tabloid size newspaper is called IKARA and its published monthly. The inspiration for the name is borne out of where its targeted for readershipwhich is Johannesburgs main Black Townships such as Soweto. All our lives weve lived with the name IKARA which translates to CAR in various indigenous languages of RSA. So when we sat down at thought of a name IKARA sprang up and has now been put to print. 2011-1-28 10:48:46 http://www.theikaraproject.com/page3.htm#85513 I have just added some great footage of Peter Wherrett driving the Bolwell Ikara Prototype.

Seems James had a ride in the Black Ikara Prototype and was interested in sellingbuilding the cars in Scotland.When I came back to Scotland interest in the Ikara was amazing I was promoting not just on the styling which I think stands up very well but on the composites technology and in particular the injection moulded windscreen surround which was very innovative twenty five years ago. I set up a company and pushed the Ikara project and was granted financial assistance from the Scottish Development Agency for the project.I setup a factory in Stevenston in Ayrshire Fibreteknic to produce the FRP components and an engineering company for the space frame and mechanics pretty much by the time this was in place the project was sold on.
