Hi all

Been looking at kit cars on fleabay etc for over 8 years and wanted either a westie / robin hood etc type but ended up owning a mgf (5 years) and currentlt a 2001 mr2 but keep going back to kit cars , basically something different .
I,m No mechanic so always worried about buying a kit car but a project car seems appealing but i always think they are someone elses ....oooops what an arse this is to fix ??

Found this forum on the internet and look forward to a good look around it and ask you guys some questions and look at your builds :icon_smile:

Welcome on board! There's lots of experience and knowledge here so feel free to ask any questions. If you're new to it all then rebuilding a car that's already sva'd or iva'd may be better but if you've got the patience then it might be worth jumping in and buying a kit, there's nothing like learning on the job ;)

If you get an already registered kit off fleabay,wait a little while until it becomes colder :-) that would save you a fair amount of money, and you could Spend a fair amount on a complete rebuild And have a virtually new car without sva etc .save the cash from a new build and fit a bike engine
