Greetings Tommy and welcome to the mad house. Off the top of my head I cannot think of anyone immediately. However I'm sure someone will prove
me wrong shortly.

IIRC the guy that won the kit from Luego for naming the Viento is down your way somewhere as well as another guy I spoke to on the Luego club stand at
Stoneleigh so there are other builders in your area

Hi
Thanks for the comment. The car has had an engine change from those pics to a 2L Duratec so it goes a bit better now.
Yes I did do the electrics & if you have the Luego loom & relays it is quite easy.
If you need any help u2u me & we can see if we can arrange something.
There is also a meet (kits,locosts etc) on the second Tuesday of the month at the Sir John Barlycorn in Cadnam (west of southampton) which you are
welcome to come along to.
