Newbie Looking for info

29 Apr 2013, 8:00pm
Hi All,

I'm new to the forum, I have a fair few questions and bits of advice needed.

I'm looking for a kit car for a bit of summer fun, I'm after a second hand one just to get a taste / feel for it before comitting to a build in a year or two.

Is there any big issue buying a second hand or is this a no go? In terms of models, I've seen various Tiger Cats and Mk's that seem to fit the bill, are there any others worth considering? Is there much difference between the various companies?

Insurance wise, I haven't even looked into quotes at the minute - What sort of price could you expect to pay for a 2.0 engined model?

Finally fitment wise I'm 6'3, does this rule any particular cars out to save me travelling miles not to be able to shoe horn myself in lol.

Any advice or help appreciated

Thanks in advance
