Don't believe him? Well, he tells you, have a look at the caterham and westfield websites at the turnkey models and see how much they're going for.
Idiot
Can anybody top this?
£20k Indy
Track car ? No IVA ?
He's dropped the price then, pretty sure that was up at 1 point for around 24k!
Really would love to know how you could come up with that figure!
You're a dealer who knows nothing about kitcars and the guy who part chops it for one of your new mondeos tells you its worth £25k.

bloody hell! im selling mine and making me some money!
suppose though, if caterham can charge that, why cant mk? theyre easily as good.
Wouldnt the dealer have just rang MK as indicated on the plack stuck on the dashboard!!!!!.
I am sure they would have told him what its worth!!!

How is it an R500 lookalikey?? Looks like an MK to me.
No way is it worth that, he's clearly claiming the Caterham linky to bump the price up.
Caterham should step in and say. HOY! NO!
And, its not a full race cage, just a full cage, too many bends to be approved for racing.

IS that number on the plaque the chassis number?
ISn't that a bad idea to have it publically visable if so?

But we are all the same, we know that's an MK, that's an MNR and that's a Westie.
My mates say they all look the same.
It's like any part-ex though, it's the price to change. If he chops it in against a £60k Porker, the dealer can give him £15 px for it and
still make £20k profit out of the whole deal.

If that's a real No. Plate, I suspect that could be £5k?
Got to agree with the others regarding the MK being as good as a Caterham... IMHO the only advantage that an MK can claim over a Caterham is that it is cheaper!

What type of LED rear lights does this car have ?
mks are only less reliable than caterhams if theyre not built well. the same person building one of each, theyd be just as reliable as each other. ive
had a good look at the caterham kit and its not as good, or easy to work with.
however, im speaking from a very biased point of view.
oh, and the cage is FIA approved. or mine is. and its the same.

maybe my memory is wrong, but im sure i saw somewhere that it was. please, excuse me if im talking crap.
however,id still have an mk over a cateringvan any day.
(without putting too fine a point on it )
but hey, each to their own, eh?
[Edited on 8/7/10 by A1]
right, just read the bit on roll cages... id say the cage on an mk is 'pulled' to fit the contours of the vehicle.
[Edited on 8/7/10 by A1]
third time lucky! the cage mk put on their cars, as seen in the pics, IS in fact race legal. the car that they race has the same one and its legal.
