Default Saturn on the cover of Kit Car Magazine!

Just dropped through the letterbox, the main photo and a smaller inset. Haven't read the article yet.

Well done!

You beat me to it Mr H.

We're really chuffed with the support from the mags so far and this front cover for Kit Car mag is the icing on the cake. Thanks to Rob and magazine for that. The good thing is that the feature is not just about Saturn but its promoting the Haynes Roadster as much as anything else so between ourselves and Ash the Haynes as a build is really getting a kick up the butt. The mags seem to want to encourage the back to basics of the kit car building which is good for us all.

I've attached a scan of the front cover in case anybody doesn't get the mag.

Big thanks to the people that have helped out with Saturn over the months, you know who you are - especially to HandyAndy who's been a big help.

Thanks.....AndyH

That's MEGA!!

Don't get the mag myself, but hopefully TKC will do an article soon..

Glad they are showing interest as sometimes reading articles on Cobra Replicas with estimated builds starting at £25K does make you wonder if the whole original ethos of Kit Cars has somewhat been lost over the years.

The artical is a very good read, on both Saturn and the roadster.

Ditto Kev,I have not read it yet but definately agree the article will be well deserved as I have seen first hand the work put in by all concerned.

Well done all !


Should have been "Sports Car Magazine" cos it aint no kit !!!.

Thanks everyone for the good words, got a stinking hangover and you've managed to put a smile on my face - takes some doing......

Picking up the Rx-8 doner car on Wednesday so its full steam ahead. Hopefully we'll be having a news item in the next issue regarding the progress of the 230bhp rotary based car.

Cheers...AndyH

Cool.

Will have to pop over for a blast in that when it's done. I wonder if the front and rear uprights can be used too..
