May - June Roundup

May/June 2001


Revived rapid Rush previews side impact protection

DJ has something of a reputation for producing blindingly fast demonstrators…..none more so than the legendary ‘Black’n’.

This spectacular 340bhp Cosworth-powered DAX Rush IRS may have dropped out of sight for a couple of years, but it’s back now - and back with a vengeance as probably the ultimate spec. 2-w-d square-tube Rush.

It does, however, have a surprise up its sleeve. Or, more accurately, alongside the driver’s and passenger’s sleeves…..side impact protection bars. They can be ordered with any new Rush chassis for £245 per side plus vat, which includes the provision of all required chassis mounting brackets.

European growth boosts DAX Tojeiro sales

Essex-based DJ is selling more of its classic DAX Tojeiro model to continental Europe than ever before.

“There is definitely a cult following for the Tojeiro building up on the continent, just as there has been for many years in the UK,” said DJ Marketing Director Simon Johns. “So far this year we have sold some 45 Tojeiros, and no less than 15 of them have gone overseas.”

This year has seen a steady stream of orders from DJ’s European agents, with long-established German agents Cn Fahrzeugbau of Dormagen leading the way.


DAX sales success at sunny Stoneleigh show

DJ enjoyed its ‘best ever’ National Kit-Car Show at Stoneleigh, Warwickshire on 6th and 7th May. The company accepted firm orders for five cars, with even more sales to follow from a host of serious enquiries.

Two of the deposits were placed for motorcycle-engined DAX Rush cars and, as expected, the prototype turbo-Hayabusa-powered DAX Rush Lightweight was the undisputed star of the show. The black and aluminium car with its 350 bhp Jack Frost-developed engine only weighs around 400kg and is probably the quickest car on the road in the UK.

“This was our best show ever,” said DJ Managing Director Brian Johns. “Not only did we take orders for two motorcycle-engined cars, but also for one conventional DAX Rush and two DAX Tojeiros.”

Outside the exhibition halls, The DAX Rush Owners Club was also enjoying success. With more than 20 cars on show on the Monday - and more than 30 over the two days - it was the club’s biggest every national gathering.
