This may be a bit harsh but I think I would rather drink my own urine than build one of those. Why ? The amazing handling of a cut down metro and
bodywork designed by Stevie Wonder on a bad day. 
I spent a lot of money on booze, birds and fast cars. The rest I just squandered.

Can't quite catch your drift, here...does that mean you like them or not?

The Metro handles really well and the QA on the Banham bodywork was either done by Stevie Wonder as mentioned or over the phone
The Bat is an odd looking piece of future Kit Car history : the x99 looked was alright though if you were man enough to cut away most of your
crash protection and swap it with some ill fitting plastic and foam filler

There used to be a very nicely built one locally, I expect a lot of work went into it but I liked it!
Phoned the local ramblers club today, but the bloke who answered just
went on and on.
