Called in at MK Engineering today (not to be confused with MK Cars, a seperate company) and saw the laying down of the prototype chassis for the futuristic design 7 type car.

Looks very good, all I can say is tubular chassis 'a la birdcage', no square tube.

Also saw the so called 'failed' wishbone that was the subject of much fuss recently in a posting. All I will say for that, is the Locostbuilders thread was completely wasted.

No, a secret as to it's exact design right now until it's released but Martin said it was OK to reveal a little taster.

Rob, i agree 100% with your 2nd point in your opening post, i was lets say "gob smaked" when i saw it a while ago but thought "can of worms", "gob shut", i did suggest it was taken to shows and hung up on stands for all to see, cos i think all should see.
What did you make of the shock bracket ? Think ive gone too far allready.

A couple of months ago I saw on their site that they are developing some thing of the sort, so nothing divulged here that is not in public domain.

Surely if you can go there and see it, it isn't that hush hush!!!

I should let it die about the wishbone,the man was a ****er!
I cant put the real words there for fear of solicitors letters flying.
And feeling angry at the same time.

I think if my SAAB hits a kerb at speed I might sue the manufacturer for my lack of concentration,I dont think so!
