Sold the mk last weekend ( sad time)

After becoming paralysed in 2006 at the age of 24, in 2008 I decided to build a kit car with my dad, I ordered my mk Indy r frame from mk , I had a k5 gsxr 1000 with very low mileage. In 2010 and 17k later the mk passed its Iva and was registered on a 10plate . My achievement had been made. It was magazine featured in 2012.

After 2 trips to the ring , oulton park, Caldwell and blyton park and only covering 4360 miles I sold it last weekend.

The guy who bought will defo look after it and care for it like I wanted .

It will be sadly missed but am ready for the next project ,!!!!!!!!!!

wow, that's great work!
I bet it was sad to see it go, but hopefully you've got something even better lined up?

Shame to hear it's gone but I'm sure the new one will be better... The old one was/is very nicely built and rapid though so it'll be a hard act to follow.

Great looking car Nick

Have you widened the chassis to fit those seats?

No standard chasis , the seats are corbeau le pro , same as what they use in the lotus exige but just with normal trim , fitted perfect, had to make up the mounts for them.
