Just bought a Kaig for some kids to restore. Anybody know of any other owners?

That's the one.

First done by Kaig motors, then bought by Robin Hood. Now??

Don't think there were many made. Got one for beer money.

Thought it was the other way round, in that it was originally a RH design.

There was a rumour that someone had got one through SVA, but if the V5 says Metro it will need one.

Still a good cheap project to learn mechanics, but don't spend too much on it.

Yup. Pretty sure it was RH first then sold on. Its looks are an acquired taste and not many people acquired them... not sure many are still about....

Hope it's not the Vamp model aye karumba

Cant say its the most pretty of vehicles but looks very simple and cheap to work on. Sounds like a fantastic plan to get kids interested in cars - well done.

Ihad my first car -Mk2 Escort at 16 years old. Didnt know enough to make it work but when 2nd car cama along when i just turned 18 (Mini) i was able to get it all fixed up and MOT'd just in time for passing test. My father used to help when i was really stuck but mostly told me to get on with it. This taught me how to read the books and suss things out for myself - a skill that has been invaluable as ive got older and probs helped me in my working life.

As for knowing of any others. Try posting on the RHoCar community forum. I believe there are some over there.
