Danny was struggling g to get 12k for his very nice cobra.

Trouble is for around £20k you can get yourself a very nice Cobra with a V8. The Kobra is a nice easy, cheap and quick kit but it is always going to have a price ceiling because of the other replicas available. At the moment you can't buy a 2fifty kit and there is a waiting list for a Tribute. There are also very few around so prices are going to be pushed higher.

You are right about the market segmentation. Just how many people would pay £20k plus for a 250 remains to be seen.

Anyways, I'm MOT'd - detailing next... |
I've been looking and just before xmas there were a few nice V8's for around and just under £20K

That's why the Tribute 250's are good value at £20k ish, what else is there in the classic replica market that comes close ? |

I understand smash''s position, but there are a few on here who have been well pleased with the official build agent, Nubodi. Just saying.

I know, and no criticism intended. Just pointing out that there ais a tribute appointed build agent.
|
So you meant to say, "I understand Lancelot Link's position..." - he's the one offering the alternative build service not me!

Both the home built cars that I've seen and the ones built by the build agents look great on the whole. The only issues that come up is the GRP itself . Reports of movement, bubbles, stress marks and the effects of hot and cold weather. I'm no expert but that can be down to a few factors. In my own experience I wouldn't paint a freshly moulded GRP surface for a considerable time, maybe 6 months or so. It does tend to move and settle for ages before it is 100% fully cured and dried out or it might be my lack of skills at laminating fibre glass ? Either way , the longer you leave it the better it gets.
