Lancia Stratos??
Discussion
The only 2 companies I know about are Hawk and Napier Sports, but you'd getter a better idea here Stratos forum.
Martin (who really should try and make up his mind if his next kit is going to be a Stratos or GT40 replica).

Just wondering if anyone owns or is build a Stratos kit?
Wouldn't mind one myself once the Ultima is completed, any reccomendations?

i built a Corse, back in the days when Litton made them.
the quick answer re whether to get the Corse or Transformer is - if you are looking for "accuracy", go for the Transformer, but if you are looking for a great handling car that just happens to look like a Stratos, get a Corse i.
PM me if you want any more info. . .
Ditto what vojx says. Napier Sport describe the Corse as an 'evolution' rather than a replica, so the rear suspension uses wishbones rather than struts to provide more forgiving handling than the originals.
Drove one for a few laps around Brands and survived a slight oversteer moment through Paddock Hill Bend without any real drama, so I'd say it was nicely controllable.

That'll be me too! I've got a Hawk HF3000.
Transformer is a previous incarnation of Hawk.
You won't go wrong with either manufacturer.
Budget £20-25k for self build.(upwards, as ever you can spend as much as you like)

Hmmmm, the first photo of that one is almost exactly the same place as my profile picture (Oulton Park I think)..Is it a sign to buy???
Anybody actually have a kit underway?
Midlands eh?
Rob, there's a club gathering to show some cars to interested people coming up in a couple of weeks - you'd be very welcome to go along, poke about and ask questions. Scroll down this thread for details http://www.stratossupersite.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3597&page=2&pp=30
There'll be examples of cars from both manufacturers there. It's just an unofficial club get together.
