Fury/Phoenix wanted

Looking for a road legal Fury or Phoenix, preferably with a windscreen.
Ideally from southern half of UK as I'm from Southampton, but will travel further for the right car.
I'm a private enthusiast buyer.

Thanks, Ben

There's no screen option on the Pheonix; all just aero screens.

You could also look at the Stylus though.

Good luck in your search.

Thanks for the info i'm learning all the time.........yes the stylus would be great. I'd consider any full body kit car that's finished to a good standard, don't mind fettling but don't have time for a full rebuild.

It would be good to give a little more detail, maybe your budget?

I do know of a Phoenix for sale, 4AGE 1600 on carbs, 4 speed dog box, road registered Ex Race Car. STM chassis with full cage, IRS.Guide price would be around £5.5K

Budget is variable depending on car, if something unbelievable came up £10K+. I'm also looking at Honda Elise's. Aim is for a good looking, well built fast road and track car that I can drive as much as possible throughout the year. Had lots of normal type cars and looking for something more 'interesting'. I'm fairly handy with a spanner but am looking for something to drive, not work on.

I was interested by this but was out of the country and couldn't view before the owner went away till March. Felt it was reasonable for £5K

Fisher Fury

Currently got a pretty crazy beach buggy that I built, but I'm looking for something faster that handles better and I can use on track. Old man is getting a 991 Turbo S in Jan. It'd be nice if it could keep up with that in a straight line

This is local to me and looks great but I just don't think I'll get out in it enough:

Tiger Avon Kit Car 2.0 XE Vauxhall Fully sorted high spec road race hillclimb

Thanks for the help.

I saw that Fury a few years ago just after it was registered. Was a nice build but the engine is a bit old school though. It's a "full screen spider" body with no doors though, so difficult to make a proper hood work (can't get in/out). You can manage with a half-hood like this that keeps out 95% of the weather...


The Avon used to belong to a member on here (laptoprob) untill he sold it last year. Quick car in his hands but probably not a usable as a full screen Fury.

I saw a pic of that half hood (rain cap) and thought that would be great. I had a similar thing made for the buggy.

I'm not 100% disregarding anything, when the right car comes up I'll know it when I see it. Missed out on a few nice ones as I work offshore, back here for a while now. I'd rather a modern power plant, saw some pinto cars I could swap a Ford st225 into but don't really have time so would rather buy already gone.

Main reason for the post was to see if anyone had a car laid up for the winter who was contemplating selling.

My mobile is 07761811600.

Found these:

Quite like the look of the red one, but not a fan of the colour and £12K seems a bit steep, plus I think the car is in Italy!
