Every day kit car

I always wanted a Midas.

Never ever got round to it.

A bit of fettling would turn this into a great little car.

Bear in mind that I have the thing on the left, so make your own mind up about my taste.



A really really well developed car for under £700 - it's criminal how little these fetch.

Could be an interesting BEC project

With a little work it could look sort of like a libra.

We have a strange relationship the sylva and me.
I love it dearly, like a dog with a gammy leg.

Anyway, the little Midas.
What a great car. I could go to work in that, do some grass autotests, PCTS, hillclimbs. The lot.

I could even sneak an LPG conversion in there for good measure.

Nice little car but because they use astra lights, they look too much like a vx to me





How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?

I hate the front end on these, but loved the the Midas Gold. Spoke to a chap on the stand at Stoneleigh and he said the front was changed to make room for the K Series engine, but they are developing a Gold-like front end for it due to lots of customer feedback!

It wasn't me.

On another day though, with slightly better conditions, it would have been, in a flash.
