I've been trying to get info on buying a Replicar kit for some time. Apparently, they're no longer being produced? I contacted the US distributor, with zero response from them. I contacted MEV, and was simply told "out of production". I would be interested in taking over U.S. production & assembly, but it seems very difficult to communicate with anyone about Replicar business.
If any of you have insights regarding this, again, I am interested in keeping the Replicar project alive.

Hi Ed, MEV sold the Replicar rights to Andy Carwithen. His company, ANC Sportscars is producing the Replicar - very well, I should add, having picked my kit up 3 months ago. There are more details on his website: www.ancsportscars.co.uk, including Andy's telephone. |

Hi Ed, hopefully you can get hold of Andy. I am in China at the moment so I can’t access Facebook but sure I saw a post from Andy recently regarding a kit being sent to US.

Hi Ed,
My Replicar is about to arrive in Boston where I'm based.
I would love to chat with you regarding bringing a Replicar production to the US.
I can't seem to find a way to PM you so might end up going via your website.
Let me know what's the best way to get a hold of you.

I contacted MEV, and was simply told "out of production". I'm curious, was it MEV themselves, aka Stuart Mills, or RTR/EXO you contacted? |

Lemans75 I am really wanting to get one of these kits sent to the Seattle area. Can you tell me how much it was to have it door to door to Boston?
