That's fighting talk! The new nose looks good from that angle. You can see the roundedness of the top. Very nice.

If MNR do sell it seperately, does anyone know if it will fit a Luego Velocity XT without changing the bonnet?

MNR only sell bodywork to kit owners.

thanks for the advice

Actually, I don't think that the new nose is lower from the ground than the previous one. I f you take a look at the first pic, it's almost in line with the lower edge of the chassis - as any of the sevenesque noses usually - IMHO. The only reason it seems to be lower that it isn't cone like, but has a few centimetres paralell with the ground.

Don't you think?

yep only available to mnr owners, as we like to keep our identity clear, dont want other cars to resemble ours in the body work but have different chassis etc
i have spent so much money on moulds etc to get production car quality shutlines, and the end result i believe is the best quality bodywork around, which all my customers deserve

best regards

marc

thanks graeme didnt think it would be to everyones taste, but if floats my boat

i dont sell our bodywork to anyone else as its only fair that our customers get the benefits of our investment after all they have all invested in mnr
we are doing all locost bodywork in the new year, to same standard just a different shape to ours

best regards

I like it a lot! Best pics yet and the quality of the GRP looks first class! My preferred colour as well, and I know this is the nose I will chose! Great looking car, I hope mine will look this good one day...

Good job Marc!

you mean a bit like the doors on a moris minor? I think you're right though, a "bubble" on the sade panels would look better. I suppose it would be a bit like a bonnet scoop.
