RV Dynamics Nemesis...
Discussion
Anyone seen one 'in the flesh' ? Anyone know anything about RV Dynamics? Is it even still going?
Google is a bit weak on this one, but, via Google I've found a rather old (2003) Pistonheads thread on here that mentions this kit car whilst the contributors air some dirty laundry.
Thanks!

I bought a nemesis kit.... i still have the chassis and its your for £1, actually strike that, I couldn't do that to my worst enemy.
The wishbones I was delivered were totally different shapes each side of the car, the entire front end was 10mm off the C/L, the uprights castings were so poor there are not adequate to fit to a shopping trolley, rear uprights needed re-machining to make the bearing carrier round as the were far from... the throttle pedal welds snapped in my hand which worried me a little.
And Im not including the worst of my experiences... I scrapped the entire kit in the end, have bits of it lying around the garage including the chassis and bits of the body.
I believe I was the last person to buy a Nemesis kit from them... they are based in Sri Lanka now.
Nice looking car and the body was very strong (but hugely heavy), I have a friend who is just finishing one off... he's had to spend masses getting it right and it looking very good.

my friend used the original chassis but it was a far better quality than the one I have... it isnt well designed though and so with the huge quality control issues mine had it would have been a backward battle to sort it, they also tried to redesign parts of the kit like the front suspension and i have to say my 8yr old daughter would have done a better job! genuinelly!
RV left the Uk shortly before I bought my kit, it was truelly terrible and anyone considering buying one should come and see the stuff I was supplied.. body was good but the important bits were extremelly bad made, dangerous in fact.
I scrapped over £5k worth of kit and didnt try to sell any of it... so gives you an idea about my feelings.
My friends kit is a very nice metalic grey... got some pictures of it next to my Noble when I went up there last and I have to say its looking bloody good... hopefully it will be IVA'd soon and im looking forward to going for a blast in it
