Wanted Kit car circa £5k-6k budget

Still looking for a decent 7 style car, preferably with a car engine and putting out decent BHP (over 150hp), and road legal.
Preferably MK Indy, Mac#1 or similar, as long as I can fit in it ok (I'm 6'2 and fairly stocky)

Am located in Buckinghamshire, but willing to travel a bit.

Anyone looking to sell there's? PM me.

thanks for the replies, am still looking. I'm ideally after an MK Indy, and one that's had a decent amount of attention to detail and looks the part.

Whilst I have stated my budget is 5-6k I would be willing to come up a bit higher to £7-8k for the right car.

So if anyones looking to part with a nice looking MK, anywhere between £5-8k I am seriously interested (been looking for 4-5 months and desperate to have something before summer!)

Why an MK out of interest?

main reason, i like to look of them and the fact that parts can be easily had from off of there website. Maybe not the strongest reasons, but thats where my preference lies, but im open to others, I just want a good car, that looks, what I conceive to be nice.

Yes as above, I am the biggest MK Indy fan, Ive had two, the old Indy chassis and a Indy R, but!! please look at a Mac1's, MNR's ARIES/STUART TAYLOR and Westfields etc, if your buying 2nd hand, theres loads of great cars out there, do not limit yourself to the Indy, and you will have a better chance of finding the best car for yourself, good luck in your search

Hi Paul, Certainly not limiting myself to MK's only, the indy is just top of my list. I'm open to all of manufacturers you've listed.

Evening.

I'm selling my 2007 MK Indy. Currently a complete "needs engine only" rolling chassis with LSD diff, willwood four pots, MSA 6point cage, full bodywork, etc.

Is a race car currently but easily convert to road car as have lights and handbrake lever, etc.

It is ready to take a R1 5PW engine BUT if you spend half a day welding and painting or find someone who could it for you it would take a 2.0l zetec (blacktop), bike carbs or throttle bodies, sierra type 9 box and you'd have 150+bhp MK for under £5K!!!

email me at jameskmieciak@hotmail or text 07920 007566 and i'll send over pics of what I have

Am open to offers on all the bits as want to clear garage for Locost Race Car build..... take 2!!

Cheers

James K
