When staying near worksop on holiday over new years, I decided to pay a visit to the Mk site.
A quick phone call and make sure there was someone there, and off I went. I was greeted by some of the most helpfull people I've ever had the
privalage of meeting!
The Unit's are set out very proffessionaly and I was even shown a MK being made. Shown the stores area and the fabrication area.
Because of this, I'll be putting a deposit down in the next week or so. Thank you very much.
Any discount will be greatly appreciated! 
How long did they say delivery would be? I was told 6-8 weeks but it has been 12 weeks so far and i'm still waiting for the call! I'm NOT complaining
though as they had a batch of 25 for overseas and the chassis is SO good i'm willing to wait for it. I think the usual time is 8-10 weeks so mines not
to far off.
You are right about the staff. When i went there they treated everyone the same....like royalty! they even threw in a few freebies!
Can't wait to get my call so i can get started....yipeeee!
Andy
Good luck
You remember to order the extra foglight/subs/blue washer jet package B3Saxo?
LMAO!!
Cheers
Chris
Your not far off Chris!!!!! I was thinking on the way home if I could get a pair of 12" subs behind the seats! Talking of which, has anyone put a
stereo in one?
I was told 8-10 weeks. I'm sending the cheque today. but unsure what colour to go for. The black one looked smart in there workshop. think i'll go for
that one!
Yeah that black one looks the dogs danglies! Mine's dark blue but i may change to black if they have all the fibre glass.
I'll tell you what, it's going to be the longest 10 weeks of your life!!! LOL It's all worth it though

Ordered mine on the 21st Dec, very exciting.
I've gone for black down the middle with orange arches, we shall see what that looks like.
Started to rip the donor apart today, very therapeutic, should ease the wait.

My Saxo has enough speakers and amps to put a local Dj to shame! So the Mk must go down the same route! Whats the biggest wheels you can get on one of
these things?
I know it'll slow me down, but i'll get a crap set of steels for the performace stuff, and a huge set for showing off!
So it's gotta be done!
How about leaving the front and rear wings off and sticking chromed tractor wheels on it. You'd be the envy of every cruise. Oh, and best adjust the
suspension a bit, otherwise, you'd need a ladder to get in.
Also, it's well known that enormous holes in bonnets mean much more speed, so why not leave the bonnet off completely, infact, don't bother paneling
it at all.
Finally, aerodynamic "aids" are a must, since it's a rear wheel drive car, there's nothing that's going to truly mess a cars traction quite like a
wing on the back of a front wheel drive car, so why not aim for negative down force, aeroplanes use it, aeroplanes go fast, so it must be good. I'd
reccomend this biggest wings you can find, upside down stuck on the front and back.
If you're unsure about all these great mods, then just go for that enduring grail of modding, and slap some poorly produced M3 mirrors on it,
masterpiece.

He he! I have a set of M3's here somewhere! And in true Locost style i'll make a rear wing out of pieces of angle iorn and some MDF. Jobs a good
un!
Anyone got anymore ideas i could use?
And has anyone got a price for chroming a set of 76" john deere tractor wheels?
Order mine on the 24th december yipee!! Gone for the black aswell!
did they mention anything about a slight price increase in the new year?
I wasn't that interested as I had my deposit to hand, but those on this group thinking about putting in an order should consider getting a move on.

Any idea what sort of increase? I'm not worried as i have paid my deposit but just incase there are others. Whatever you have to pay it's still the
best chassis out there!
