Is it the right price?

LOTUS 7 REPLICA Caterham, Westfield, Tiger, Dax, Robin Hood, Locost | eBay

Right price or OTT. And what has happened with the rear lights?

Is this a TRADE ADVERTISEMENT?? Click HERE to report it!

I would like to know how long it took him to make the 4 aluminium wings, or where he sourced them from ?

Firstly this is not a kit car!!!

It's actually a 'Bailey Special' so the V5 alone is worth a fortune to a special builder!

On that basis it must be worth at least £10K.........

Apart from the rear lights and the completely ridiculous splitter/spoiler thing on the nose I like it. Aluminium bodywork really suits a 7 rather than GRP.

Is it worth 6k? Hard to say without inspecting it, but if he made all the bodywork I suspect he's done a pretty job putting it together.

Looks ok to me, there is of course some bits that aren't my cup of tea but these would be easily taken off, I think it's worth about 3.5k - 4k depending on what it looks like in the flesh and how the engine sounds.

Cheers

Looks well made an an alloy nose would really finish that off a treat an all alloy body seven would fetch very good money if it is well done.
