Yup - one day it'll qualify as a car (four wheels, lights, seats etc)

Davecymru, that is lovely! Could you do me a favour if you get a chance? Tell me the wheelbase dimensions of it, length and width, despite a few emails the manufacturer never replied....

Apart from the 15" MGC wire wheels / adapters making it a tad wider (I expect) and it's obviously been lowered, it's an unmolested Triumph Vitesse chassis / running gear / engine underneath, so this should be close:

Edit: I can try and measure the shell one night this week if I get a mo.

That looks great, I recognise it from somewhere though; has it been in a magazine or Kit car book?

Yep, it was in a few and they also reviewed it here on pistonheads

Not tail happy at all to be honest, it might just be the setup but it'd just grip and grip unless you wanted it to be tail happy

GKD are great to deal with, they don't ignore your calls once they've got your cash which a lot of suppliers seem to do!

That's very nice. What's the spec of your car?
