Make everything - ha-ha, not a the moment, they’re currently on my dads project, he's borrowed them for the time being!

I think I’m just being impatient, cant find the car I want, so looking further a field,

I didn’t want to tell you guys but i actually enjoyed driving my mondeo today, please don’t judge me, I’m having horrific withdrawal symptoms.

I'm not ashamed to say it but.... you guys in the UK get all the cool kits cars to choose from. Aside from like the 4 or 5 guys here in the states and Canada that do 7-esques there are very few options for kit cars unless you want a Shelby Cobra.

Those Ginetta's were beautiful, I think I drooled a bit on my keyboard. Especially that G50...wow...





I'm not scared!!! I'm just marking my territory.

If I didn't have my Fury, I'd have a G27. There has been one advertised in the back of one of the kitcar mags for months now.

Even Better with a V8 - Go to Newark this weekend and have a chat with the Owners Club

There are 4 series of G27 + ex race series cars - Engines form X-flow to RV8 and plenty in between Live axle , Jag axle, Sierra independent - so lots of variance.

Had mine a couple of years now and very impressed - a lot smaller than you think - less room than narrow body westfield - shorter wheelbase as well.

I think the Marlin looks very nice, and cheap too. You guys are indeed spoilt.

G4 is pretty if you want a classic one and can find one cheap.

Fury Le Mans in Blue....no windscreen (for wimps) and a turbo pinto. Not the most recent engine granted by nice looking car.

I took me a while to decide between a Fury and G27. I eventually went for a Fury as I thought the G27 was a bit too big, a bit too heavy and more limited in engine options.

Don't get me wrong I think they're great but you'd be as well to buy an old TVR.
