the headlights are 5 function, known as Venom, we are going to start selling them later. For now you can find them at CBS etc. Not cheap but they will be much better value when we get a batch of them if 3 months time.

Any possibility of a US based builder buying a pair?

They do a euro spec beam pattern which might suit you guys - what with both being on the wrong side of the road...

Stuart, somehow it looks simpler and lighter - have you used a smaller diameter chassis tube? Is it lighter? It's narrower at the front, I think...
Nice colours.

I was poking around a bit online over lunch, and say both the UK and EU variants, and was wondering if that was the difference between the two. Pricey little guys, but man .. I love the '5 in 1' aspect, and the design. Hmmmm ... |

Quick question Stuart, you mentioned the 'original' will remain in production. Does this mean if I place a new order I can choose which version I get? If not and you plan to phase over from the original to the new shape, when do you expect this to be? I.e. If I order now will I get an original, or if I wait and order in a month will I then get the newer shape? P.s. I'm new to the forum and currently getting ready to purchase my donor....  |

I would be interested in knowing this too Stuart as really want to start a build soon! |

Hi, we intend to keep the "original" in production along side the 2015 model so it is just a matter of picking as they are the same price, just £2595.

Is it possible to order this with a rear wing or wing mount?

Is it possible to order this with a rear wing or wing mount? We just buy standard off the shelf universal wings from ebay, about £80, bolt them on the grp and they are just fine. It is not as if they generate massive amounts of drag so they are not likely to come adrift. |

Fitted new shocks and springs today. Not as easy at it looks as there was not enough ride height at the rear without modification. It does ride well now though and they look much better than the original ones.   |

On the pic of rear shock isn't the black piece at bottom end of spring to be turned so it goes inside the spring to center it..I would think it would break the lip after awhile on the road.. getting a spacer made to raise spring up would be better or see about making top spacers for the top hat to frame like Kevin has made up.. or just see about longer springs.. Might want to cut bump stops in half front and rear to give more shock travel.. Like the headlamps all in one design..
