How-do!

Hi All.

First up, I've got to be honest and say I'm not in any immediate danger of purchasing a MEV (or any other kit or new car!) for that matter. No money, time, or space

I have, however, always wanted a 'sevenesque' since about 20 years ago when my uncle bought a Westfield.

I've watched with interest (sweeping generalisation alert!) how the 'basic roadster' kit market has struggled with the fall from popularity of F/R drive-trains, and wondered if there was ever going to be a realistically priced modern alternative.

So I'm here to have a good gander at these MEV's, specifically the Rocket and Sonic7, which seem to fit the bill perfectly, and for the time being, at least build a new aspiration

Hello lowrensteve

I have built two kits, and both were chosen because they were not 7's!. I love my Rocket, if you built one you would live it too. I built mine for about £7k (the Exocet is even cheaper) and i built it in a normal single garage with no specialist tools. Take the plunge, it is possible.

welcome
