Judging by all the negative feelings that people are putting on here recently about MK I don't think too many people will be interested in
anything new from them. Just my opinion.

Well i should just point out that mk engineering is a different company which is owned and run by martin
mk sportcars is the company that bought the rights to the mk indy which is owned and run by baz and phil

Should have been rebranded when the current owners bought the MK from Martin IMO.
Either that or Martin needs to find a new brand name for the Midi and Beam-r (is it just me who think that play one words doesnt work well?)

In fairness the only complaints I’ve seen against MK sports cars is from 2/3 people certainly not enough customers to warrant suggesting that no one
would be interested in buying or seeing MK at Stoneleigh, I’ve bought loads from MK and yes I’ve had issues with them but there a small busy company
who don’t have a woman organising them and things just get left and not done.
I ordered a roll cage from them that took some time to arrive, in the end I went and collected it Baz apologised and made it whilst I waited, we shuck
hands he knocked of £30 and we sat eating tea and cake together laughing and joking all afternoon.
I personally think its down to peoples attitude to be honest, MK isn’t ASDA and don’t offer the same level of customer service, at the end of the day
there guys that earn a living doing what they enjoy, if you upset them and publicly show them up on web forums I’d expect a fight on your hands.
As far as I’m concerned they have done nothing but be polite and helpful to me, I’ve even been invited to two track days at cadwell as a passenger
ride with Danny, and I don’t even know MK lads that well.

think you've got MK cars and MK eng mixed up. I hope people doing this is that one doesn't damage the others reputation.

The first quote is one of the downsides of the second quote and an unfortunate downside of good customer relations with people who come to the
workshop, results in it being more difficult to keep those who can't call in person happy.
I look forward to having a look around the beam-R at Stoneleigh. Martins engineering is always worth a nosey. Re-branding as something like
"Keenan Engineering" would help with the distinction between the two companies; Lots of people confuse the two. I wonder how many
enquiries MK will mistakenly get for the beam-R?

Which has got to be a problem. Whether the problems at MK are real or not, mud sticks; Why put yourself in a position to have it thrown at you when
it's nothing to do with you?

It's all just a little bit of history repeating.
Veteran members of this 'ere forum may remember that MK in its original form was not without its customer service issues. You've just got
to have been here long enough to remember.

This forum is turning into a nazi state, for christsake lighten up so what if it was posted two days ago, i've not been posting much of late on
this forum because I don't like the way it is heading. Certain indiviguals seem to have an opinion on everything and everybody, the classic case
of the pub bore, we've all met them.
I'm getting a bit fed up of all the mud slinging and talking to other members they feel the same.
Just my twopence worth, I'll climb down off my soapbox now.
Rant over must get the car out the garage now a go for a drive happydays.

When i posted that MK Egineering are launching there new seven based MK BEAM-R at stoneleigh kitcar show in may this year it was just that to inform
the masses that go to stoneleigh that there is a new car to be seen on the MK Engineering's stand
it does not need stupid coments from people on here................ It's an anouncement
so the people that want to see it can and those that do not care will not see it simple really

I must admit im fed up of the mud slinging, someone was just making us aware of something interesting to go see, thats all.
It wasnt an opening for yet another pointless round of ripping mk.

If you click on mk engineering that is at the bottom of my post you will get a better idea other than that you would have to ask martin at mk
engineering or see it at the show
