The 'origin Cobra' - an update

The replica Cobra is now coming on strong, as you shown in the pictures below.
The engine is in and is due to be urged into life in the next few days.

The cockpit is looking more and more purposeful and the wheels are on.

The crowning glory is going to be the paint. After rejecting a couple of previous purples Allen has approved the final colour - this has been embellished with metalflake and the finishing flourish a shower of sparkles. This is certainly going to make the 'origin Cobra' an eye-catching beauty with a beast of an engine to give outstanding perfomance. She should be ready for road/track testing around Easter-time. So watch this space for more news soon!

Origin product design on the Beeb

The BBC news team were holed up in the Origin design offices recently to showcase us as an example of one of the best high tech design consultancies currently working in Cambridgeshire and the UK. Their main thrust was to show the public that you can thrive in business plus enjoy all the benefits of country life without missing out on high tech advances.

Broughton, home to origin became only the second village the UK to receive 100mb/s broadband, making day to day communication with Europe, the USA and the Far East even quicker.  A great shop window for origin, the village and the county.

MEDTEC Ireland - another great success

Origin exhibited at Medtec Ireland with a fantastic opportunity to meet contacts and suppliers from the strong Medical design sector in Ireland. The exhibition took place at the SAS Radisson hotel in Galway with exhibitors from the UK, Ireland, Europe and the USA.

Neil and Richard met many of our current suppliers, re-established connection with companies previously worked with 12 years ago and created a number of new contacts. We're looking forward to following up very soon.

We like Ireland.
