oh hang on a minute where else would he build it?
WOW, thats given me an idea, I too have a garage, so I too can build a car in it. Why didn't we think of that
He didnt really build it though did he... he bolted some bits together....
Its a crap story. 0-60 in under 6 seconds..... yeah, so??? If it was under 4 it might grab our attention!
How the fk did that get into the SUN?
Isnt he on here somewhere?
Tegwin, i think he designed and built it from scratch from a "Basic Chassis".

Do newspaper reporters believe anything they are told these days?
Its the sun. Id like to see the 2grand a piece wheel rims aswell.. and the bespoke leather interior
And why would anyone call a 150mph car a supercar???
My 1999 Audi A6 estate will do 150mph!!
I have now realised what I'm doing wrong with my build now...
I've been trying to build my car in the wardrobe in the spare room!!!
I best moveit to the garage then.
Ooo, now then reporter, look at my sub 4 second car I built in my garage, look at that home made induction system that works better than the Ford one.
Its FWD engine that has been engineered to rwd...
Yours for 100K mate...

Ah so you DIDN'T buy a K1 Attack kit and put it all together following their instructions?
This is a typical example of the press getting a simple story to sensational proportions. They probably sent a spotty 19 year old journalist round to
take the 'facts' and just made up the rest!
I think what we need to realise is that this is The Sun. They take a boring, small and often useless story. They then change all of the facts
completely and dumb it down for the readers.
Nice car though!!
Still, ignoring whatever BS has been added to sensationalise the story, I must say, that the pictures seem to suggest that he has done a lovely job of
building and finishing the car.
I have been following the build story of a K1 by a young lady in CKC magazine and it seems the kit is not the easiest to build. With that in mind, I
think the builder deserves some congratulation on a job well done.
Crikey... slow news day!
It does look like a nice build...
another thing-you could have a REALLY awesome ultima for that kinda money.

That pic is of it at Goodwood FOS.
It is a very nice car even close up.
Don't get me wrong. I think it is a nice car - it was just the daftness of the story that got me chuckling
WHAT mechanic HAS £70K TO BUILD A CAR
Swmbo has given me permission to build one, where can I get a kit?

If he got offered 90K for that he is a FOOL for not taking the money! BONKERS!
