Had a look at one yesterday, looked like a nice bit of kit. Has anyone on here built one?

I take it you don't mean the designer handbag,

Possibly one of these though?

Maybe i'm not metro enough but I didn't even know there was a birkin handbag

It'd be the 4 wheel type

A 4 wheeled handbag, now SWMBO can get some stuff in her bag, but it doesn't need 4 wheels..

They are every nice but very expensive arent they? Caterham money i think.
It answers my question about black wheels a couple of days ago. Im not doing it now

See the Kit Cars section of the forum on Pistonheads

I did a little reseach on Birkin after moving to SA. Good quality, expensive i.e. Caterham prices, they don't use many donor parts, only engine/gearbox, things like uprights/steering rack etc. are Birkin designed and supplied.

e.t.a. I have some detailed price lists for Birkin SA if you are interested. U2U me with your e-mail address.

Handbag? I was thinking of those things asian women wear to cover themselves...
