Rant warning.......

£2500 - £3000 including build!!!! Have they put something in the water down there in Cornwall!!!!!

Lets do some basic figures......

Say you want to earn £18K per year doing this....thats £1500 per month.

If you build one every three weeks, that is £1125 per car.

Plus workshop rent......say £400 per month (v cheap) thats £300 per car.

Heating, light, business rates, phone, etc..... say £200 per month...., thats £150 per car.

Car development cost.(inc moulds).....say £20K (again....v.cheap), and you produce 50 cars, thats £400 per car......

So where are we......£1500 + £300 + £150 + £400 =£2350

Thats without actually making a body, etc, marketing, profit.......see where this is heading?

Sorry, it just ain't gonna happen.....
