there is 1 car sold totally overpriced aborad and now the community thinks to replicate this again by advertizing their cars for a high price.


you need to keep in mind: its still a triumph spitfire, with all its pro´s and con´s...nothing quick, nothing track orientated, rear suspension a bit "vague" , the "kit" supplier has no real historic related history....there is no historic value at all with those cars.....so why should i pay so much money?

at the end of the day, to be honest, those kits only exist to "bypass" IVA test.....to make it a cheap kit for the homebuilder to overcome latest registration-laws.

this said: the body-shape and design is great.....such a body on a spaceframe chassis (aka Locost) with the typcal seven-ish live-axle or even an IRS, in combination with a well tuned x/flow engine (for the oldschool guys) or a zetec-engine (for the modern guys) would be a great thing.

unfortunately such a car would need to pass IVA
