I think he built at least 3 , one of the pioneers of Locost!!
BUILT being the operative word not from a kit of parts...........................

I always regretted selling my Caterham... so I got another one!
Oh Yes
Regret Number One
rangy2
350 chevy Range Rover 10MPG it had to go.
Regret Number Two
Daxrush
Could not justify the amount it was worth when poor.
Now driving a MK Golf YUK!
Bollocks , I like my BEC
I regret selling my Mk1/2 Cortinas, Escorts, Austin Healey Mk1 Sprite, MGB's, but it is all something we did year's back when you could buy them for a few hundred pound's. If only ..............
Only selling my coiled v8 series 1 Land Rover. But I know where it is now so one day may be able to get it back.
I did think about selling my BEC last year as it would have been more cost effective than building into a fury body, I expect when I am done with it
finally it will just collect dust.
I think it depends on your character...
You don't know Conrod!!!

True Dave,i built and ran 3 ,the first being a champion book chassis,helped build 3 more,had a hand in a twice championship winning cateringvan plus
plenty of MG b,s and midgets that we raced.
Yep, regret selling the striker to this day, was such a well sorted car - Q609 ACF where are you? Last I heard it was heading to Doncaster...

You obviously didn't own a BEC then!!!
Yes, wish I still had my first 350lc, the Kawasaki Z1000 and the mk2 escort I had..
Keep wondering if I should have kept the Striker I had as well.
Still would like these back

Very much regret selling my early 60's pre - CBS Fender Stratocaster in Olympic White.
Oh and my 1960's Burns Vista Sonic guitar
My Locost ?? , no ................I used it so little over the years, and London Surrey borders not the best place to drive one!!!
Best fun I had in it was trackday at Brands!!, even then it pissistently rained all day.
Regret selling my 1937 SS Jaguar saloon - bought for £40 in 1961
and my MG Y-type saloon.
But circumstances changed
Very nearly sold my Seven, so glad I didn't, I've come and gone through motorbikes, verious tin tops etc. Only vehicle I regrate selling was
my Suziki Rgv250 was like new and would be worth a fortune now
Don't think I'll ever sell the DRM it's a one off and fast as F it's going to have a full rebuild in 2021 when she's 20,
new modern Bike engine, Indepent rear end instead of the Dedion.
Every single day....
At least the Striker went to a locostbuilder user (ravingfool) and has been doing a sterling job of correcting all my mess!
If i had any money and buying it back was an option, i'd do it right bloody now!
Was going to sell mine but after a blast out at the week end, nah. I know i wouldnever get the performance or fun out of anything else for that price.
I had to sell my mine to pay for my divorce. I miss that car far, far more than the ex-wife!!
Every day!
Especially in the summer when I see people out enjoying theirs. I will build another........one day! 
Looking back I regret selling my Fury but at the time I was not using it (now have more time and £ so could !), so was happy to see it is being used for what it was meant for (spirited road and many track days) by a locostbuilders member.
