Formula 27 KR Roadster/ Image Sports Cars Monza / F27 in gen

[creading001]

Firstly, let me introduce myself. My name is Craig and I am now the proud owner of a RED Formula 27 KR Roadster first built and registered in 2005 powered by the mighty GSG1300 Hayabusa engine.

As usual with all my other cars (more later!) I like to know their history.

Therefore, I am reaching out to the forum for any information about the F27 KR / Image Monza / YKC roadster / Mev Ltd Monster that might previously only be known to Steve Porter / Don Burt / Bill Edwards / Peter Allen / Stuart Mills.

I am particularly interested to know the fate of the RED Formula 27 Ltd KR demonstrator and also the YELLOW and BLUE Monza variants when under the “control” of Image Sports Cars post Yorkshire Kit Car(YKC) since according to Mr. Burt “The reason we purchased the F27 range was to save time and money on developing our own "7" – and hence the demise of the KR / Roadster? I also recently found out that in 2013 a heavily modified KR in Red appeared as the "Monster" prototype with a Chevy V4 courtesy of Stuart Mills @ Mev Ltd.

I look forward to finding out more information with a view towards documenting what is where now.

Hi,

Thanks for the information. Yes bought the car from a guy in North Wales so sounds about right. Any more you can tell me about the build?

Thanks
Craig
