Well dropped the car off wiv mark at mk Motorsport 4 him to start the fabrication work!!!! The old fella made me a towing hitch an it did the trick drove nice an smooth all the way there Had a good natter wiv mark about wat way i wana go wiv the car an he's got loads ov ideas he wants to do on the car wat sounded beltin so watch this space
The car sat really straight just the curb making it look like the ass end was down
Even went the full hog put a safety chain on just incase pc plod pulled me didn't realize wat I did wasn't legal!!!!!! Thanx mark last thing I needed was a John Wayne mr police man doing my head in!!!!!! Well not much I can do now apart from collect a few bits!!!!!!!

Do you reckon MK Motorsport will be doing that anyway Marc? Normally pretty gen'd up as you know too well
Can't wait to see this build really kick off. What are the plans so far, when will the major slicing n' dicing of the shell start?

I know Mark is very up on the best set up to be running etc and i have no doubt this car will be running double a arm suspension set up and a trick custom coilover set up but i doubt very much they have talked of building it to regs as it's not the owners intention of use
But.....as it's the newer mk7 and he is starting a fresh i would build to the rules and add a massive amount of value to the build should he ever wish or need to sell it on

Would be cool to make something similar to what Marc's doing with his MK6 Fiesta, have both ragging it out on track considering they both carry a lot of the same components But hey your colour scheme sounds ace

Very good point there when u think ov it!!!!! To b honest me an mark av been avin a chat about the fab work mainly the roll cage an what type ov use ime guna b use in the car for!!!! I do want it as a track day toy but proble b using it quite a bit as a run around toy as well but ime in two minds if i want a fully stripped out race car is if ime using it day to day ish i don't fancy drivin round sounding like ime in a bake bean can/baking tray rattelin away but like every project thing change day by day an ur comment as got me seriously thinking about wat us say makes perfect sence financially in the long run I.e selling it thanks 4 the advice an ile av a chat to mark about it!!!!!

White always works fella, at least you have the option of wrapping it in your choice to avoid looking like a T**T Doubt it would though, considering it will look and be a rally/track car anyway
