Title: Ideas for a kit car please...
Post by: 'The Gaffer' on 11, August, 2009, 10:28:21 PM
We are thinking of getting a kit car for Speedy J, my missus.

I am looking for ideas, mainly because she is 4ft 11ins tall. :)

Can anyone recommened a car?

Another thing we have to consider is storage, we already have 3 cars and the garage is full. Anyone know of any storage space?

Cheers folks.

Hope to have a look at a 5exi soon. That demo sold.

Not too worried where storage is, not that important.

Cheers Rich.

With Speedy, its more about looks than power. A mini is too old looking and a Busa may as well be a steam engine ;D

Cheers for the garage info.

First you needto think what style of car... Traditional, Sport, Exotic.
Then what you want form it... Ecomony, speed, Practicality.

With the traditional cars they can be any size engine, as they don't have to be the quickest, they can be quite pratical as well ( boot space and full weather gear)

Sportscars normally are small and fast, so not so practical.

Exotic, these are generally looked on as fast cars some can be practial...

So... What do you need???   ;D

Hello Brian, hope you are well.

Trouble is, I want most of it but know I cant have it.

Most important is size, one that I can drive, second is looks, it has to look very good and be stylish, third, it would have to be quite fast but not scary.

On top of that some practicality would be nice.
