Was gonna get a Rickman ranger !,Went to Detling ,but at last minute decided on this . Apparently ,no one wants them any more ,so they're cheap ,and with tax free and super cheap insurance ...I like! A great run around !

Nice one! bout time we had some of this stuff! So if lowered and tricked out it should handle like a fresh escort?  |

 it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts  |

I think every kit has its probs !Know what to expect after re building a Locost ! This ones been on the road for many yrs ,and seems OK . Not going to lower it ,keeping the offroad look . BUT. will be adding a few 'personal touches'! Have got almost another complete car in spares as well . Body panels etc . Plan is to get it MOT'd ,then do an on the road rebuild. Needs all new brake lines ,and a fuel pipe to tank . Engine has just been re conned ,new clutch etc ,and seems to run sweet .Interior needs gutting and new everything !Gotta be worth it for the free tax and cheap insurance!
