Nightmare!
Hadnt been out on the road since the Exeter show and brought it out to clean and polish it as had a few people coming to look before bidding.Took it for a spin as it was a nice day and the bloody clutch was slipping slightly so I pulled it from the Auction.Had 101 watchers too! Also been answering emails all day!
Anyway the clutch will be sorted and I'll be open to offers thereafter.

Nice to here.
Kits are in stock too.
Remember that the bits u dont need on an MX can be resold on ebay so you can get a better car than u think for your budget!

Kitfreak - great and simple conversion, I like the 'new set of clothes' approach to kit cars. Has anyone attempted the "V8miatta" style chevy V8 conversion in the UK and would it be viable with the Forza body kit?

Agreed and agreed

Mazda did a great job with the underpinnings and the Retroforza kit looks excellent, transforming the look of the car.

Now of course the 4 cylinder seems somehow inappropriate when it looks like it should wail...
