Hi all,
I am new to the forum and this is my first post. i took delivery of my mx250 kit 18th July.
Build is going well although very slow due to work commitments. only had 2 decent weekends to spend on car so far.

Your build is looking really good...

Thinking about starting a build of my own soon, when funds and the wife allow. Just been trawling these forums to get an idea how difficult is going to be.

I too am in York (huntington), whereabouts are you?

Cheers best1148, I will take you up on that,

Looks like a northern meet has found its spiritual home :-).

I'll be looking at building an mx250c hopefully by the new year, starting to look out for a suitable donor, hoping to make some performance mods along the way too. Planning on learning a few new skills along the way. Mainly how to keep the wife happy while spending hours in the garage!?!

Good look with your 250c . I've been driving mine now for the whole summer , there is not many 250c s about. I have made loads of modifications to mine :)
Enjoy it.

I'm planning to take mine to the Pickering Modified Car Show next year. It would be fun to have the Yorkshire chapter of Tribute owners all there.
