This car came up before, has some nice touches to it and it is wrapped not painted.
More details on customer builds on the Nubodi site. Has very nice seats from an MGF.

There is still a fair bit of choice for 70 series tyres for car use but I agree you do need to check. I seem to remember the red Nubodi demo car had van tyres fitted. I think you would have to be involved in a very serious accident before tyre type would be factored into the equation by an insurance assessor, best go for the correct tyre from the start if possible.
