The mental gymnastics a landlord will employ to justify immoral actions is clinically fascinating. Just because something is legal doesn't make
it moral.

Some nice suggestions, I was thinking Caterham Levanté V8 shoe horned into my Panda, lowered with some kind of AWD.

A dream garage kitted out with a pit / 4 poster and all rest id need then onto a GT40 kit with mega power, a few luxuries like aircon to make it a
real all weather kit and then beef up the MNR with the most track sensible kit possible and find a cool (if you can say that?) motor home to make the
most of towing the MNR around this countries tracks and the european ones.

Got to admit, if I had loads of cash I wouldn't even consider owning a kitcar. I'd probably buy a factory built Caterham for trackdays but
that's not really a kitcar is it?

Sticking to kit style builds:
Lola T70 rep (oh wait, already doing that).
Lancia Stratos rep.
Modernised 7 style car (like that v8 swedish car I can't remember the name of now).
Ultima style car with two bike engines longitudinally in the back inboard powerboat style.
Traditional 6/ early 7 style ally bodied car with narrow wire wheels.
Cheers

You can do it quickly. You can do it cheap. You can do it right. – Pick any two.

Just get me Espace serviced
Gradually going off spending loads on cars (irrespective of my imagined wealth situation). Prob stretch to an Ultima eventually but XF diesel I like.
May get Deimos finished at some point.
