[2] The goal for the company was to build simple and lightweight cars powered by motorcycle engines.
The cars were designed by Reynard and used Triumph motorcycle engines and were minimalist in terms of options and amenities.
Initially, the company planned to send 50 to 60 cars out of their factory once the firm was fully up and running during the year 2000.
However, due to changes in the UK's Single Vehicle Approval laws during the time Strathcarron was beginning to sell the cars to customers, the company had to go back and reconsider using the engine out of an automobile in order to legally sell the car for public roadway use.
An attempt was made to use the Rover K-Series motor, but financial hardship forced the company to shut down before a working prototype could be completed and road tested.
