Default Fiorano T48 Anyone Built One?

Hello All, I'm new to the forum and to the world of building a kit car. I am looking at the Fiorano T48 as a first build as it seems to be relatively simple, I like the style of the kit and the mechanics of the donor car are very easy to work on. Is there anyone on the forum who has built one or has bought a completed car who could give me any advice? The only information I have is the build manual which I bought from Mick at Fiorano and the very limited number of articles written some time ago and posted on the internet. They all say how nice a kit it is but there is no information from someone who has actually built one. Any help and advice will be gratefully received.

Roadster, Thanks very much for pointing me in the right direction. I have read Car photographer's thread and have left a post on it.
Cheers, a very "Old Jock"

They both look very nice but I hope my build cost isn't going to be anything like the asking prices!

yeah, exactly - to be honest I think they are overpriced anyway - the red one's been for sale for about 2 months now and still hasn't sold.

however there was a part built one up for £4500 a few weeks ago that seems to have been snapped up now - I wonder who got that one?
