Default Help Needed - 1985 Motorspeed Magic Kit Car

Hi All,
I have purchased a 1985 Motorspeed Magic Kit Car,
It's quite a nice looking car and should be a good introduction to kit cars.

The problem I have though is that I can't actually find anything out about the company.

Would love to know more about them and find any other owners.

If anybody knows some info I'd much appreciate you letting me know.

Thanks

Sadly they don't have an entry in the a-z of kit cars book i picked up a while back, so fingers crossed that you find somebody who knows somebody....
