It was built by a pair of middle aged bloke if I remember correctly.

I know I've seen it being thrashed about at Castle Combe. Suspension had a lot of lean unless its been improved since.

Should I be hated for liking it a tiny bit?

There's obviously things I'd change.

Spoke to the guys at a cruise years ago, they built it and put the 17" raceline 5 spokes on

It was built on a budget and for a bit of fun

Log book isnt a place to be cutting corners though

thing is if i remember correctly then it costs to get the log book changed and if they built it as a track toy there is no need to get it changed. i know i wouldnt bother.

I like it, looks kind of cool.
Id have to sort that cage out tho lol
A tin of hammerite, and you could have that cage brush painted in 20minutes, would look a load better.

I remember this from it's feature and from when it nearly took me out a few times wile going around combe in the stick when it was still a 1.6.
I backed off in the end and let them drive like ****s and ruin my session.

Not a bad car, love the gaffer tape over the bonnet vent and the white paint driping down the scuttle panel, looks like LOTS of care and attention gone into it- NOT
