Some changes are in the offing at MK.

From the first of April, The Indy will be sold by a new company, MK Sports Cars.

Martin's Mk Engineering company will operate from his home address. He will be selling the new GT, the Banshee and running his tube manipulation business making Custom exhausts and roll bars, and concentrating on development work.

MK Sports Cars will be run by Phillip and Barry from the factory in Langold.

Cheers

Chris

Any legal ploy where the government gets less, is fine by me ().

I know my disposable income has been significantly reduced by this latest government, is this what the rest of you feel?

Good luck to Mr MK - he's back where he wants to be...

He made me a wicked roll cage,along with what I think was the last escort based chassis (book). I have not see another one like it, and the quality is excellent!-Unique!

I doubt it was the last escort based as I saw two chassis being loaded onto a trailer the other weekend!

I can't answer that one!
But when I ordered my chassis, Martin did his best to disuade me, and wanted me to go for the 'Indy' ie Sierra based chassis, until I said that I was going to 750 race it as well as 'road' it. Hence I waited, cos he said that he was only going to do indy and no more 'escort', that was back-end of 2002!

I´ve been speaking to Steve Gibbons at MK earlier this year.
How is he involved?
