Er, wasn't the XTR always a kit? Also, don't forget that to that £6999 you have to add engine, bodywork, wheels, so you're looking at the other side of £20k for a realistic kit price really...

Still, fantastic car though!

That list doesn't seem to include steering, either

Also IIRC add another grand if you want reverse

If on a tight budget you can save £1000 by carefully cutting a couple of holes in the floorpan, just big enough to get your shoes through, walk backwards and hey presto! instant reverse

You may sometimes get a little wet, but a thousand quid will buy you quite a few pairs of waterproof overtrousers!

Or why not save the £6,999 by going straight for the bodywork and a pair of braces?

Dick Dastardley (or is it Fred Flintstone?)
BTW Supersixfan, I thought you’d changed you tag.

I had, but we have five different computers networked together in our house and I must have to reset my profile on all of them individually

If on a tight budget.... buy an MK GT1

Has the Mk actually passed the SVA yet? Their website doesn't mention it and all the pictures are not SVA'd cars. I would like to see a picture of the final road legal car.
