Am new to this and am looking to buy my first kit car. A work colleague recommended this forum for advice. I've seen this car on ebay:

Sylva Striker MkII 1700 xflow crossflow Raw Hillclimb Sprint Race Track Kit Car

Do people think the specification and condition is good value for money at this price. As there are many people with a lot of experience with kit cars on here, your thoughts and comments would be appreciated.

Thanks

Looks good at that price these are surprisingly agile cars

Nice looking car.

Strikers are renowned for there handling. Cross-flow will go well enough and you could always upgrade to latter if you want a bit more power. Might be worth asking over on JPSC forum. Someone there might know the car.

you will never be disappointed on how a striker will drive not a bad price worth a look...

that looks like a lot of car for the money to me - buy it

being sold by philfingers on the google sylva-chat list

You might have to register to get on there and there are no additional details.

nice looking car, bit disappointed that's there's no many photos of it on listing

not many photo's....?

One day I will sell the westfield, and replace with two cars to split the 'top down touring' and 'autotesting' tasks into two cars, in which case the latter would be a striker.

This however will probably not happen in the near future, and only if I either become richer or reasonable, or can secure and convince someone willing to take the convertable as a daily car!

We all need dreams. Mind have a large garage....

From another striker oner, you wont be sorry.

If you look at what other spec and type of kitcars are forsale, you wont get nothing as good as a striker for its handling and size.

Good price I'd say for this.

Was thinking of selling mine but took it out for another drive last weekend and thought b*****r that.

All I would say is take it for a drive.
