MNR VortX RT Kit inc R1 2008 etc 'Ready to start'
GeoffMM - 5/1/10 at 12:28 PM

It is with great sadness and due to an increased workload that I am advertising my MNR ‘Un started’ kit car project.

****£4500****ono PM, Call or text 07894833925

Collected July 2009 this kit car has only had the 2 bulkhead panels fitted and is ‘as new’ ready for the new owner to complete whilst making a significant saving over the cost price.

MNR are by far the leading kit car manufacturer at present with a high quality of parts and unrivalled customer service. I have spoken to MNR prior to sale who have ensured me that they will gladly be on hand to assist the buyer in completing this project and providing further support where required. This kit includes the latest style nose cone for improved cooling.

Having paid >£6000 for all of the items listed below this represents a huge saving over the regular kit price, engine and sundries cost.

I am located in Lincoln and any potential purchaser is more than welcome to come and view the kit prior to purchase/bidding. It really is worth coming to see just how well made the chassis and components are compared to other manufacturers.

I have managed to put some picture on the link below. I will be listing this item on ebay (Item No 280447469112) once the weather improves to give people more of a chance to view, hopefully when the snow leaves!!

Delivery can be arranged at a cost of £120 but full payment for the kit and delivery will be required first as I will have to hire a van and take a day off work etc.

These items have been bought in addition to the basic kit supplied by MNR.

Now on ebay 280447469112


Peteff - 8/1/10 at 10:51 AM

Proper link to it. I'm putting it in my watching but don't get excited, it's only curiosity

GeoffMM - 8/1/10 at 12:44 PM

Lol thanks for the link.

Someone sent me a message saying i should put a pic up of the finished car which sounds like good advice.

Will do when i get home.


stuart_g - 8/1/10 at 01:37 PM

I would love to buy it. Really fancy building another, cracking cars.

Good luck with the sale.

ETA:- You could also put an advert on Pistonheads.
There was a part built Westy on there recently, sold in 3 days.

GeoffMM - 8/1/10 at 03:03 PM

Oh right i will have to have a look and see about advertising on there. I am in no rush so will try 1 advert at a time that is paid for.

I will have a look and see the spec of that westfield and how much it sold for.

I can't believe how many questions i have had asking if certain parts are included after i spent 4 hours making out such a long list.

Not to worry i will keep an eye on the listings. It's an incredibly cheap way to start this high quality kit so i'm sure it won't hang around long.


franky - 8/1/10 at 03:04 PM

the westfield sold for about 4k IIRC.


GeoffMM - 10/1/10 at 09:20 PM

Item is now sold.

Thanks for everyone's help and support. No doubt i will return once work eases up with another kit ready to go.
