Formula 27 KR Roadster/ Image Sports Cars Monza / F27 in general
creading001 - 27/8/16 at 08:09 PM

Firstly, let me introduce myself. My name is Craig and I am now the proud owner of a / the RED Formula 27 KR Roadster first built and registered in 2005 powered by the mighty GSG1300 Hayabusa engine.

As usual with all my other cars (more later!) I like to know their history.

Therefore, I am reaching out to the forum for any information about the F27 KR / Image Monza / YKC roadster that might previously only be known to Steve Porter / Don Burt / Bill Edwards /Peter Allen.

I am particularly interested to know the fate of the RED Formula 27 Ltd KR demonstrator and also the YELLOW and BLUE Monza variants when under the “control” of Image Sports Cars post Yorkshire Kit Car(YKC) since according to Mr. Burt “The reason we purchased the F27 range was to save time and money on developing our own "7" – and hence the demise of the KR / Roadster?

I look forward to finding out more information.

Mev ltd (Stuart mills) bought a KR and stuck a Chevy ls v8 engine in it and called it monster. Also did some fibreglass work on the front end to tidy it up a bit and make it more modern, worth a search.
