I do have to agree.

I thought Kit cars were all about being imaginative... them looking like real racers.

That one looks like an old Vauxhall... (which is not a good look).

There must be better kits out there, apart from westfield etc... surely?

And there was I thinking it looked a like the Fiesta, as I said a few subtle mods and it Really would look like a squashed Fiesta, the original design was done way back in the late 70's and even today you see some of the design features appearing on new cars.

The Murtaya started life as the red minari
and the GTM more or less started off as the Black Midas

Ok already done that bit, browsed my pictures, uploaded one less than 150kb in size, left click and dragged over the code, copied, and then pasted where you can upload a file, then press OK submit and nothing happens

I'm trying to find out if an owner of the current Fiesta would consider building a kit car if it was based on their favourite car. And also trying to get a feel for the type of styling that ticks the boxes in what I assumne to be a younger head than mine, with say 20 year olds.

I realise I could well be in the completely wrong forum, but I don't think it does any harm to get a feel for people's attitude towards the idea.

I'm not intending to make thousands of these kits, perhaps only 10 kits a year, but I know kit car companies who only sold two kits this year.

I bought a fast car mag the other month and thought it was utter rubbish, so I'm trying to see if there are people out there that have a more mature taste and attitude to individual cars.

I always thought a westfield was just an inferior copy of a Caterham a car that harks back to the 60's, how come they can get away with it?
