Im looking to buy one of these cars and the Panther appears to be good value.
Im not able to build my own sadly due mainly to time but also for ability (I think)!
So a mate has guided me to this and wondered for your comments as it appears all the main work is done for me.
You probably all know this car anyway but click here to see it and let me know the score.

Keep it simple remember Im new to all this..

seems alittle pricey to me?

what about

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/MK-INDY-FIRE-BLADE-TRACK-RACE-SPRINT_W0QQitemZ220085976068QQihZ012QQcategoryZ29750QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

To be honest I reckon it's good value actually given that it has all the nice bits like a Duratec with throttle bodies, Willwoods, Quaife gearbox, etc, etc.

It's the GTS show car and it's a nice car although make sure you check it's passed SVA and is registered correctly as a GTS Panther and looking at the pics I can't see any seats so def worth going to look at the car to make sure it's as described.

Too expensive for me !!!!!!!

MK INDY fireblade at that price all the way

i personaly think the gts is a nicer looking car, but i wouldnt buy one due to the attitude of the owner of the company, however i do like the cars, i think if you keep yours eyes open you will find a cheaper car at the same quality to be honest thats more than westfield money

Just re-read the link and realised it's plus VAT which then makes it expensive but then again assuming it has the spec it says it is a nice car.

Depends what you want, you will get a nice Bike Engined Car for 8-10k, probably be selling mine in March and I'm only looking at around 8k.

Obviously it depends on whether you want a bike engined car though.

Rich.

are those headlights "s.v.a." approved

im out of here before the gts fan club
arrive----------------)

Having seen the car in the flesh I can certainly vouch for its build quality. And I am building one from a kit, so know that the parts are good.

I think it will need an SVA because as far as i know its not been registered yet.

If you want a useable car for the road then you are better with a car engine, if you want a track car buy a bike engined one.

I am sure if you get in touch with rally design they should be able to answer any and all of your questions, without the stupid remarks you get on here every time GTS is mentioned.

I think that seeing as it's got well over £5k worth of new duratec, Quaife gearbox, bellhousing, raceleda uprights etc then it's actually a very hi spec car and probably worth the £9900 + VAT particularly if it comes SVA'd and finished.

About the only thing I wouldn't be too happy about is the GAZ shocks - I would prefer Protech but I may be wrong about that

You would certainly struggle to build that car for that money.

I saw this car a few times at their workshop, it really was built to a very high standard and looks fantastic in the flesh, as far as i know though it is not yet SVA'd, at that price i would want it road legal.
Looks the dogs danglies though and that engines has shed loads of torques and revs like a bike engine (well nearly).
The lights are generally considered non SVA-able on here but they have had quite a few cars pass with them now, depends where you go for your test i guess!
Cheers.

Wonder if it would be a age related plate? Or poss new reg?

All new parts so it would be a new reg number.
