MNR vortex is one of the best starter kits I found when I was looking to buy one. Looked into the tiger avon but fould it to have quiality issues, although the higher end tiger models did seem very good, just the entry level was a bit poor, that was based on ford sierra/cortina.

The mnr is based on a mx5 which made it pretty advanced in kit car terms.

I want a mnr with a zetec turbo once funds permit
