whats yuk?
Looks like a sylva Riot ripoff to me
Why would one want a bmw donor for a mid engined car? makes no sense to me!
i think the new car has not been pictured or advertised yet. the midi has been around for ages!
I'm guessing the BMW based kit announcement is not connected with the the Midi......just happen to be on the same page...that's my
thinking...
(Too late...yeah what he says...^^^^)

I like it, a new twist on an old theme. Good thinking
Who said owt about a MIDI !!!
Following on from the well received GKDs
http://www.gkdsportscars.com/
To be fair it wont be long before alot of manufacturers look to the very few other donr options.
MNR and Westfield have gone for the MX5, GKD and Martin Keenan (not MK!- sort of) are looking at BMs.
Apart big Vauxhalls and Volvos, some Japs wagons, there arent many other RWD options for donors, it wont be long till sierras go the way of the
cortina/escorts. Ok theres plent of sierra parts around, but that doesnt help people looking to go down the one car 'age related plate'
method of building.
If only more of the Omegas were manual...
The picture is of martins last project the R1 engined Midi there are no pictures of the BMW inspire project as of yet.
its a kawasaki powered midi i think! zx12
Quite like the Midi. Just looking at the photos though, it seems the front bones have two bolts in-single shear don't like that, maybe this has
changed??

not an optimal design ideally, but has the advantage that any impact on a wheel wont damage the chassis. IIRC, that midi has been crashed significantly 3 times now, and has been repairable each time
