        Check out the prices of AC Cobra kit cars. My mates just sold his 5.7 chevvy engined car for around £25k and that was a bargain for somebody!

              I saw that and laughed, me thinks someone has sold him an expensive build of a really cheap chassis/kit combination but the end result is impressive looking. He may have wel spent that on it, but resale value is nowhere near the advertised price. Unless of course you're a dealer with a sharp sales pitch
              - 9th owner of T693 SSC possibly a factory built Ford based V8 Sportster
              - 4th owner of Q309 RNV, an early Cabrio built by Bob Copping, owned Doug & Liz Billings for 16 years
              - 9th Custodian of JRR 929D, Triumph Vitesse based special Paul Moorehouse built prior to the Triumph Roadster kits.
              - 8th owner of Roadster chassis number 2395. Now owned by Barry!
              - Builder of chassis number 2325 (PKK 989M) in the mid 80's. Now owned by Eric & Lynne.

                This Lancia replica, is a Miglia body on a Vitesse chassis built by a chap who goes by the title Mister Towed on the madabout kit cars forum
                Miglia threads.

                If you have the patience you can goe back over the diarised build you will see how it was built??????

                    Re: Kit car prices

                    With the collapse of the GBP due to Brexit, kit cars with the correct paperwork are dirt cheap, 20% or so, than they were pre referendum, for our European friends.

                    That may have a small impact on prices.

                        Re: Kit car prices

                        Practically £8K for that? Or perhaps I should have said.. tat?

                        And that dash board? Looks like someone needs to invest in some welding lessons...... and, brushed paint on it? Oh for pities sake, what was the builder thinking of?

                        Proof if it was ever needed that there is always someone out there who's prepared to try and polish a turd! And then present it for sale at Damien Hirst prices.
                        2000 Marlin Cabrio LWB; 2.0 L Burton Pinto in Ford Nightfire Red with Magnolia leather interior.

                          I also follow Madabout Kit cars and I must ay Sammio builders do seem a bit different. Its not about polishing a turd though . It is finding someone who agrees with you about the value of what you are selling. £40k Land rovers anyone? S1s I mean.
