Is there an relatively affordable road legal car designed for maximum sportiness at expense of comfort and beauty? Example optimisations in mind: door above knee high roll cage, single headlight unit near the center (why distribute two masses towards edges?), two piece windscreen if need be, door made out of a steel slab with outside hinges, windows that dont roll down completely.

Caterham 7s start at £26,490 in the UK with comfort being a definite low priority

They don't sell the 160 anymore? It was less than 15 grand in kit!
Nope.
