Hello All,
I’m Paul from Huddersfield.
I have been looking for a number of years at Kit Cars but for one reason or another not been able to commit.
Finally we moved into a new house a year or so ago and the only stipulation I had was that it had to have a double garage so that in time I could build my own Kit Car.
So now it was all about the funds $£$£$£.
This is when I came across MEV Exocet and the discussions started with the boss (wife of course). In the past I have always thought it would cost around £15,000 to build my own Car and this meant it would be a project for later on in life when all the bills were paid. But with the Exocet it has meant I can bring that forward and start the process.
I have been looking at the forum and the other builds which are superb by the way and now I have taken the plunge. I only hope i'm able to do the Exocet proud.
I have purchased a MK2.5 MX5 2003 59,900 miles in very good condition as it was not much more money to get one that has been looked after. I have ordered my Exorcet and my order spec is,
1 x MEV Exocet kit car G Type 2017
1x powder coated chassis in bright red
1x body work in dark grey
1x 2017 new rear wing painted in dark grey with endplates powder coated in bright red
1x 2017 new front wing painted in dark grey with end plates powder coated in bright red
1x harness bar + seat belt brackets (will be using seat belts to start with)
1x set of extra wide cycle wings all round
1x dash pod painted in rall 7004
2x Fly screen
1x LED lighting kit
I can’t wait for my build to begin and I have purchased a few things that I hope will help i.e. Car dolly’s and a new creeper and have spent the last few months clearing the garage to accommodate the build. I will post as many pics as I can and please comment where you can as I would appreciate all your knowledge and expertise and I hope I can call on you for advice.
Regards Paul
