Excellent - I've been waiting to see someone build one of those.

One minor thing though - the Home link doesn't appear to work on my IE7 (yes, stinking browser I know - but it's what my work wants us to use)...

Well, as I'm picking up the donor this weekend, I feel justified that the blog can start being called a build diary so it can have a link here: (dead link, will post a working one soon)

For those of you who may be interested, my V Storm build diary is at

http://www.classicbikehire.com/VStormHome.html

Things I've learned from my first kit car build?

The mechanical bits are easy
Electrics and bodywork take ages
Waiting on parts has to be allowed for

It's fun!

Hi, im Matt (the joint owner)

Apologies, we are well behind with the site and definately should have added a comment section. I have no idea how to add functions to the site, that is Laurence's department, but we will update it as and when we can.

With regards to the car's progress it passed its SVA at the first attempt and was registered on an 08 plate in May. Since then we have been adding modifications to the car such as Nitron Suspension, Momo wheel, quick release boss and small additions, but have spent most of our time just enjoying the thing. It is fantastic.

Any questions, just email/message either me or Laurence on here and we will get back to you.

Matt

I'd not considered that kit, but having seen the prices and donor vehicle, I'm now taking a closer look!
