Build a sports car for £250...........
What a rip off. Don't they know there's a credit crunch? Have they not heard about the upcoming recession? Talk about profiteering!!
For those of us with smaller budgets there is an alternative. IT'S HERE and
HERE and HERE and
HERE and HERE and

That is brilliant!
I know a bloke who does this kind of thing in the 21st century, and there's a lot more to it these days.
Wouldn't it be wonderful to have that sort of freedom?
Thanks for the link!
Cheers

Note to all: I really don't know when to leave well alone. I tried to get clever with the mods, then when they gave me a lifeline to see the
error of my ways, I tried to incite more trouble via u2u. So now I'm banned, never to return again. They should have done it years ago!

Thats all very well but everyone knows that £250 is impossible so I reckon its going to cost you a lot more.
more like 27 pounds and 3 shillings (or some other of the old money speak maybe a farthing whatever that was)

My god, they show you in twice the detail "how to make a car" than they do "how to make a plane".
(i assume that so that if you're competent you can make the plane and if you're not you can't - otherwise .... eeek)

But the comment "nor do I think that anyone can reasonably expect to build a passenger carrying vehicle for £20." makes me feel better
about my £250 car!!
