I've decided to bite the bullet and sell the garage queen to make way for a kit build. I've been looking at a few kits now, and am quite impressed by the AGM WLR. Has anybody completed a build yet??

I believe the AGM WLR was tested in Track and Race Car a few months back. If you're interested, I can find out the issue number.

Yes, please.

Is Track and Race car the mag which took over from Car and Car Conversions? I dont think I've seen it locally.

It looks absolutely fantastic!!

I must admit I agree with the reviewers opinion on a different power plant. Every cosworth I've ever driven has been way to laggy. OK, this could be sorted by raising the comp ratio, but I can't help feeling a torquey N/A motor would be nice.

I like the idea of a Rover V8, infact I've always liked the idea of a Rover V8 in any kit car build...You cannot beat the noise!

I believe the unit weighs approximately 150kg's, how would this compare to the cosworth turbo and zetec engines?
