I not started building yet, but i heading that way.

I always wanted to own 3 cars in my life, A Mini Cooper S, An MG midget and A lotus 7.

I had the Mini (When I was 18 years old)
I've had a Midget (when I was 32 years old)

I haven' had a Seven (Now 35) Look at the prices of a Caterham......too much......stumbeld across here and the book and I've now I've really got the bug

Car is born

MAKE THIS A POLL, then we can send the results to Mark's website, it might cheer him up a bit and motivate him to do another "is born". (fingers crossed!) I love them shows!!!

One Sunday I was in Halfords buying parts for my tin top when I came across the book.

I took it home, read it cover to cover and started poking around on the web for more information. The real breakthrough was finding Locostbuilders... after spending a few hours reading up and looking at pics I was sold and within a couple of weeks I'd started to collect parts.

That was summer 2004 and I'm yet to create anything that looks very car-like, despite a significantly lighter wallet! I have learnt a hell of a lot though.
