£1400 for a Robinhood lightweight?

They had 2 on ebay, one kit and the one they used on video but they reckon they may be able to scrape one together for £1400. Will it be worth for the last ever!!!

Dear sir
Please save your money and buy one of the unfinished Indys or locost chassis that pop up for sale.
Rather than spend so much cash on a load of utter un-sva-able death trap tin. The design of this car will cause you headaches with workhardending of the ali panels and suspention mounts.(Not good)

Yours Mango

From what I have heard, and seen of the lightweight I wouldnt touch one with someone elses barge pole.

You can buy a good half finished locost for that sort of money, and have amuch better car at the end of it, that will pass SVA without too much hassle.

Sorry to the l/w owners.

So that's a resounding no then. The problem at the minute is that due to my account being cloned I am suspended from ebay, tried opening a new account but wouldn't work.

You get what you pay for, get an Indy or Mac 1, or something similar, you wont regret it.

well , that one isnt even bonded , not that it makes much difference .

if theyre selling you a kit , with a part built chassis , dont do it , since it was the pre production chassis , aswell as being built by the welders .
