Z-cars

I would just like to recommend Chris Allanson @ Z-cars to anyone with a bike engine who needs help or is having trouble. He seems to know everything and has helped greatly with my build. He is very patient with people who don't know anything about what their doing and will explain exactly what you should do or what he can do to help you.

He does seem to get a lot of good press.

I've never dealt with him myself, but all his new projects make me wish I had moer money and garage space!

The Mini and Smart car look great, and the kits look very good quality in the photos i've seen. Useful build guide on the website too.

Must buy more lottery tickets! Mini next I think.

Good luck to him,
Adam.

I can only endorse the above praise. He built my mate's R1 Mini rally car which was the first Mini he had done. As you can maybe tell by the avatar, and would be confirmed by many shocked Impreza mounted rally drivers, the thing is a proper tool. He is a typical straight talking no nonsense Yorkshire bloke and is known to us simply as GOD.

Just waiting for the day he gives us a buzz to say he has built a car with MORE than 2 engines.

My dad has said he will buy me a mini as a first car if afterwards he can convert it to a twin bike engined monster usingthe z-cars kit.

i just cant believe how sound your dad is! i mean, mines a great guy, pretty chilled out now he's retired, but he never offered me a twin engined mini!

It won't be for me, I'm not that bloody lucky.
