Would that be the same as what they put into rally cars? If so, I know a man who does, and he's Midlands based too.

Only just seen your post. I will text him tomorrow. He is a rally driver and builds his own cars, not a dealer. He will be able to advise you I'm sure.

From TV footage it looks to me as if the 'roll cage' is a few (very solid) bars bolted in rather than a conventional FIA roll cage. They look as if they are designed to transfer from car to car very easily. In fact the 'preparation' looks as if it is mainly a matter of stripping the trim out and adding the cage plus fuel tank and battery, with the cars being thrown away after one or two events I can understand why they keep it to a minimum!
