. . . Exeter Show of course . . .

Any pics of new stuff?

Did Marlin show the new car?

Were the WK? and Kit Car stands next to each other?

Did anyone order a new kit?

We had a great weekend. Thanks to the Pistonheaders that came along to wish us well with the project.

Our stand was so busy didn't get away from it to see what anyone else was upto. Sorry!

So Kartman, did you take a few orders?

I would imagine there to have been lots of interet in your car. It has the formula I believe works. (A good looker that's a reasonable price to buy and to build.)

Are you using a Fiat donor?

Anyone else tell me about Exeter?

No orders as yet, but that was not the object of the exercise (but of course would have been nice).

Main objective was to get the car in front of people so they could see it in the flesh. Some very serious interest though with several people coming for test drives in the current demonstrator in January. On Saturday I had nearly lost my voice by 3pm because I hadn't stopped talking all day!

Main question was regarding SVA - if I was buying a kit that would be high on my priorities. The first new chassis is under construction and we will have a fully SVA'd car by early March 2005.

The nicest moments were when a couple people who were not in the market for a kit, but had been following the story on pistonheads, came along and congratulated us on saving the car!

And yes, we are still using the Fiat Panda as the donor.
