To me its another one of them 'Spiky' cars, looks good until you realise its totally impracticable. You won't be able to park it anywhere without the pikeys following you, the chavs wanna race you, and the nostalgic people stopping you and telling you its just a copy and not a real ex Malcolm Wilson car.
To run it on the road you will have to insure it, it won't be grouped so you will have to find a specialist insurer who will insist on certain extras being added to it, and it being garaged etc.
All that taken into account and with no history I think its slightly over priced, but Im not in the market for one, and you are.
If it comes with lots of spares and any form of history (build pics - old log books, any competition past etc etc) then it may only just start to interest me at 1.5k off that price.
hi tony
it comes with next to no history and no spares far as i know. but at the moment its the type of car jakes looking for and not much else about in the price range
the spec looks quite impressive on paper at least, its all plumbe din for fire outers, genuine cossie dash, all alloy bits and the cage etc so it is ready to go.
but i dont think hes looked at the insurance side of it-as you say thats a specialist job now whereas a standard esc cos wouldnt be.
