Greetings,

I've refreshed the look and feel of the site, and kept most of the original content. Hope you like it

So I had an idea…..when I was about 12, to build my own car. Not possible at that age with no money, so here I am a few years on and I did it! I purchased a Robin Hood Super Spec kit car. Its a lotus super seven inspired sports car with a Rover T series engine (as fitted to the 220 Coupe) so it's a bit quick.

The kit was like a large Airfix model; you get something that needs building, lots of unrecognisable bits and pieces that all go…..somewhere, oh and there’s always bits missing. The only difference was the instructions in an Airfix kit are a LOT better! Plus you don’t need to spend a small fortune on phone calls to a technical support line, still that’s one of the joys of Kit Car building… no one is the same as another, even when you buy a “complete” (from new) kit like the Robin Hood Super Spec.

So dear readers, press on if you must and enjoy my journey of trials, tribulations, expletives and sore thumbs, as I built my car.”
